[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1748176, member: 17969"] Again, you dont get it. STRAW BUYERS, or legal gun buyers go into these gun shows and buy the guns and ammo for cash, turn around and walk out and resell the weapons to gang members or cartel members in the parking lot of the gun show without interuption. Only an idiot would think a gang member would walk into a gun show. THEY pay people to do that. [SIZE=5][B]The paperless trail[/B][/SIZE] Tracing an illegal gun is hard, because once it is sold on the private market in what’s called a straw purchase, the gun often no longer has a paper trail. “[The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives] is only generally able to trace that firearm back to the first retail purchase,” said John Biemeret, a supervisor at the ATF’s new federal Gun Intelligence Center in Chicago. “Further transactions that take place, oftentimes, there is no record of it.” But busts can help expose a gun's travels.
