The Secret Service has hundreds of pages of records related to the investigation of Hunter Biden's gun, despite claims the information did not exist, according to Judicial Watch.
The watchdog group has sued the Secret Service to obtain records related to the incident as part of its investigation.

“The Secret Service’s changing story on records raises additional questions about its role in the Hunter Biden gun incident,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.
“One thing is clear, Judicial Watch’s persistence means the public may get records that the Secret Service suggested didn’t exist," he added.

The organization argues that the Secret Service has repeatedly changed its views regarding Biden's firearm.
"The Secret Service now says it now located over 100 records, totaling over 400 pages and will complete its initial processing of the records by January 9, 2023," according to the group's latest Twitter post.
"Judicial Watch is also suing the DHS for Secret Service records on Hunter Biden’s travel and security costs, and suing the State Department for messages sent through the SMART (State Messaging and Archive Retrieval Toolkit) system that mention Hunter Biden," according to a press release from the group.
The concerning investigation relates to an account from 2018 that Biden's handgun was taken by Hallie Biden, widow of Beau Biden, and thrown into a trash can behind a grocery store. She reportedly later returned to find it missing.
"Secret Service agents approached the owner of the store where Hunter bought the gun and asked to take the paperwork involving the sale, according to two people, one of whom has firsthand knowledge of the episode and the other was briefed by a Secret Service agent after the fact," the Blaze reported.
The investigation remains ongoing with many questions unresolved about the gun and the Secret Service's knowledge of the situation.
