I am fully against a searchable database, but dont be so stupid as to think all guns arent registered already. The only way it isnt registered in your name is if you purchased it on the secondary market with no paperwork. Right now, the individual stores keep a record of every firearm purchased. Given the serial number and make, LE can back track it to the store it was purchased from, then on to who purchased it.



Thats not possible with a metal detector. It is very possible and widely used with a hard object detector, or whatever it is called, similar to what they use at the airport. A metal detetor requires a magnetic field to work, plastic simply doesnt have one.
Private sales don't track serial. On my "emergency" guns, I intentionally avoid the paper trail. Guns shouldn't be tracked.... so saying that they already are doesn't win me over. It's legal to build my own gun.... How good I am at it should not change that. Criminals aren't using "ghost guns".... made apparent by the murders that happened with "obama guns". There's metal detectors that see plastic. I can show u one that would see metal down to a dust or shaving and also read something as small as a plastic fork. Also... Aluminum isn't magnetic. These guns that they want to ban are still metal... They just lack serial numbers.

Show me evidence of a single crime that happened with a 100% plastic gun in the last 100 years.... These laws are nnever about crime. They're just steps toward registry and bans. The biggest threat to ur freedom on this entire planet is ur own government. Quit volunteering more power to them
