What can I do in Nice in France?

What is the attitude in France toward handguns, and can I get in trouble for selling a handgun in France?

• Here's the deal - I went on a holiday to France (my fourth visit; I wanted to explore the "French Colorado" in Provence this time), but I accidentally brought a loaded handgun in my luggage. Airport security missed it. So, when I found the handgun in my suitcase at the hotel in Paris, I was very surprised. I was also worried, because I had no legal permits to possess it in France. So, I looked up information about "les banlieues" on the internet, and drove my rental car to a city called Clichy-sous-Bois outside of Paris. I drove into the apartment towers and rode around until I saw some black dudes selling drugs. Fortunately, one of them was from Nigeria and spoke English (my French is acceptable, but not great), and I made a deal to sell him the handgun and ammunition for 250 Euros. But now I feel kind of guilty and worried that I contributed to the crime situation in the Paris suburbs, because the guys who bought the gun were clearly criminals and drug dealers. What is the general attitude in France toward handguns, and could I get in any legal trouble for my gun sale? Assume I'm currently in London. Can they extradite me or something? Should I leave back to the US?
