(2,622 posts)People who are already under the watchful eye of the BATF and the IRS in the way they conduct their business? How would that be implemented? If the small minority that is already responsible for the illegal purchases are known, why are they not already in trouble?
Improving traceability.. interesting. A more detailed track of serial numbers? RFID chips? Tattoo the serial number of the weapon on the buyers forehead, so the world can see that they have a gun?
ISO standards? Such as?
And of course, regulating production. Of course.
The problem seems to me, criminals, wanting guns in New York are willing to over look a law here and there to get them into their state. Am I right so far?
So, we can assume they are going to do just that. Now, my question is..... how is a safety inspection made of Sturm, Ruger & Company's office in Southport, Connecticut, going to stop the next Colin Ferguson from buying their weapon legally, and going to New York where it will be illegal to posses it?
Isn't the the gist of the who situation? How does one stop the flow of illegal guns, when the very act of importing is illegal in the first place?
