And when it turns out that most f the guns being used in crimes are being sold in back alleys or from robberies and home invasions where legally owed guns were stolen...we'll never hear about this program again.
Sure we will. THe BATFE will be 'instructing' dealers to sell those Five-7s to that smarmy looking gang 'kid' a dozen at a time, just like Fast and Furious... If I was a gun dealer, I'd be installing multiple security systems with off-site storage right now. It's all that saved dealers from prosecution during that last operation designed to 'prove' that US guns were being sold to drug cartels.
