Question: Illegal guns. A study by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (BATF) (USA Today, 22 June 2000) surveyed 1530 investigations by the U.S. BATF into illegal gun trafficking from July 1996 through December 1998. The study reports the portion of cases that were the result of each of five gun-trafficking violations:
46% Straw purchase (legal gun buyer acting on behalf of an illegal buyer)
21% Unlicensed sellers
14% Gun shows and flea markets
14% Stolen from federally licensed dealers
10% Stolen from residences
