Obviously, the removed serial # has Obama's hands all over it. Mika Apr 2013 #17

So he illegally purchased an illegal firearm. Just how many more laws would have prevented this? Leslie Valley Apr 2013 #2

Are you suggesting doing so is easy? elleng Apr 2013 #5

It's too easy to circumvent the law via internet sales; the ATF doesn't have enough resources. SunSeeker Apr 2013 #40

Internet sales are a whole lot easier to track than face-to-face transactions at random locations slackmaster Apr 2013 #41

It is hard to find buyers for those kind of sales without internet ads. SunSeeker Apr 2013 #43

Except of course the USDoJ already measures this and the internet is not a major source AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #47
