    So its not a report, but its better. You can clearly see that air cargo intercepts of weapons massively outnumber sea cargo. My job is tangently related to the border and I deal with Customs on some things. I also try and read the annual reports of major Govt departments, so I know what my taxes are going towards.

    What you fail to recognize is these are only the figures of what is being intercepted not what is being missed. Air freight is loose shipping and easily inspected, containers are not. The money being spent on this worthless firearms register would far better be spent on beefing up port customs and better screening equipment for packed containers.
    FACT: Only 2%-5% of sea freighted containers are being inspected. Of this pitiful amount of containers being inspected they found over 5800 firearms. Now do the math on the amount of firearms that are getting in unchecked!

    Once again people are under some illusion that this constant attack on lawful firearms owners is to stop some sort of crime occurring..
    Firearms will still be stolen whether they are registered or not, what difference will it make if they are on a register to a criminal? You can bet your ass the small number of LFAO's that sell to crims wont register what they sell or just report them lost/stolen anyway.
