And this registration was made without the benefit of computers. I do firmly believe there are tens of thousands of weapons who never got registered. If I remember correctly, there were a couple of grace periods set later becaue time was set too short, but the numbers were never there.
There was at least one amnesty during the lead up to the GCA of 1968. I found a photo of a poster once.
Almost ALL of those listed are NFA weapons- machine guns, sawed off rifles/shotguns.. grenades(!)mortors(!!) bazookas. Bazookas??? Typical news lies… remember sandy hook? All ARstyle weapons and “high capacity “ mags had to be “registered “ and 55 ,000 idiots went and done that.. they estimated 400-500 thousand unregistered ARs were in Connecticut…. Still are..”registration “ is a feel good law that does nothing to curb crime…
