a de facto and a de jure registry. Since most of my firearms purchases have generally been through one of a couple of FFLs, they'd be looking for more than one.... :-) However, in that highly unlikely hypothetical confiscation program, I know a large number of firearms owners who'd answer the door, and say, "I'm sorry Mr. DEA agent, I was involved in a tragic boating accident out in the Gulf of Mexico a couple of weeks ago, the boat capsized and all of my firearms except this Hungarian FEG PA-63 were lost.
