There are so many guns around and so many people who break into peoples houses that there must be a great market in guns for people who can't "own" them. 50 years ago the only person I knew that had a burglary in his home, what was stolen was 2 pistols, a rifle and a shotgun. They took nothing else, oh yeah they took all the ammo. I bet they get top dollar from the fence.
