Guns from private, law-abiding citizens are not the source

The anti-2As such as Keith Kaneshiro that claim criminals' source of firearms come from private, law abiding citizens should read this article and rescind their arguments

Kind of makes you wonder about the destroyed HPD weapons.  Was there a similar "smoking gun" among the inventory?

well....the question is...was every pistol accounted for and destroyed?
We private citizens register our firearms with HPD. We are required by law to report to them if they are sold and transferred.
Who accounts for the pistols for HPD?

Might be worth looking at the inventory and destruction documents via FOIA request.    :geekdanc:

Criminals will find a way. Sure some criminals get their guns through theft but in the end, they will find a way.
