Thread: Trade me has firearms database

Personally I think that once we get past the sensationalism it's a worthwhile notion.

The key here is the fact that the I formation must be entered by You, and as such if you don't use it you are not under any perceived risk.

If that's the case, then since it's so easy, why not give this access to all firearm dealers? Trademe aren't even that!
