no. i know why if i was selling a gun i'd scratch the serial off...

ok, you're getting warmer

here's a hint .. I was 17 at the time n obviously couldn't buy 1 from a store

another hint, it might've been used to kill someone

you're showing your stupidity.

you are so generic, yo

A serial is only used to report stolen guns. It's nearly impossible to trace a sold gun by serial. And the serial can be retrieved. Truth be told, scratching off the serial does very little.

bingo.....

"A serial is only used to report stolen guns"

Bingo is exactly right...I never bought the gun from the store

Therefore the only logical explanation is that the gun was stolen and sold to me by a shady character who might've possibly used it

& Yes you can trace guns.... If you sell John a gun with serial number 555 and John is from California...If the gun with serial 555 is found at a crime scene in New York you better believe John is in hot water

Scratching off the serial does a lot. It's the difference between the gun getting traced back to John and John waking up the next day like nothing happened

Unless you guys think a gun fell from the sky and into my hands & I decided to scratch the serial off, there's a lot of reasons to scratch the serial off of an illegal firearm sold to you by a reputed gang banger

Not really. For example, John from California could claim that he sold his gun for straight cash at say...a gun show, a perfectly legal transaction. There would be no record of the sale, and nobody other than the parties involved would know it happened.

Furthermore, you could claim that you bought the gun at a gun show with no record of transaction. It's very hard to tie guns in legally with someone who owned it at some time or another. Scratching off the serial isn't worth much.

meh i've gotten caught with a dirty gun its not enough for an indictment even.... but it wasnt from a crime in my area... we used to trade guns with dudes in the jects an shit.... point being gun alone is only enough for them to hold u for awhile only felons would have to sweat that shit

naw id probably move......

how would the serial on a dirty gun get you jammed up for a body unless it was registered to you?

you act like the cops magically know the serial number to murder weapons n shit yo...

you gotta be the smartest dumb nigga on earth
