as for wether it's ok to sue family: This was about heirlooms from your father! Even if only for the emotional value, it would be worth it to get them back. If a family member would take them from you "because you had it better in life", then they don't deserve getting "family immunity" in regards to court or sueing.
I wish this was the case, but it's not. Since I won a civil suit granting me the value of the guns, I have no legal claim to them anymore. I can't have both. I begged the judge to grant the guns back to me, since I don't care about the money, but he couldn't because they were resold. If I had gone after him when it all first happened that might have been an option, but I didn't because I didn't want to go down this road. (and I didn't think he actually sold my heirloom!)I did everything I could to keep a realionship with him before sueing him. I'm paying a high price for that trust.
well, you could still hunt them down, right? You were granted the value, maybe you have to overpay a bit, but if you ask who they were sold to and try to get into contact with them? Wouldn't they probably sell them back, even at a slightly higher price?
Or can you sell guns without protocolling that somewhere? I know america has rather liberal laws when it comes to weapons but i was under the impression that transactions still need to be made officially?
IIN to sue your brother?

that's an option.
if the buyer's are not jerks then they may resell them to you.
also - did your brother provide any proof of the sale?
