Reply #4: I agree that this approach has some problems ...

I also have problems with the gun buy back portion and the voluntary registration. I can easily create a list of my firearms and their serial numbers and if stolen, I can report the info to the police.

I personally feel that if the law enforcement groups do focus on the criminals who carry illegally, it will be successful. I won't reduce all crime, but it will take some of the more dangerous people and their guns off the street, hopefully for a long time.
