Interesting story here about how stolen guns often end up back in the chain of commerce without being checked to see if they're stolen:
Shouldn't there be a legal mechanism in place to prevent stolen guns from being resold by gun dealers ?
I remember McIlleneys in Waltham had a "quarantine" case where he would put guns taken in trade.
Maybe it was just a local Waltham requirement, but he told me he had to hold them for 30 days before reselling them so the police could check them for stolen.
