Hello,
Received a Radioshack pro 162 the other day as a gift. It is one that comes pre programmed..... Long story short, Can personal info can be broadcast during a traffic stop? If guns are found, they are traced as stolen or not and back to a name, correct? The whole thing about keeping serial #'s private kinda goes out the window, correct? |

If they call in S/N's over the air, yes somebody could be recording the numbers and making a list.
It's really not that much of a big deal. Nobody really cares what guns you own. If the ATF wanted to really find out, all they need to do is pull the 4473's and there is a pretty good list. Heck, lot's of people give a list of S/N's to the insurance company to add to a rider on their policy. Av. Edit: there is no law to keep s/n's private - your post reads like you belive that the police can not give out the s/n's. |
