ATF Calls for Police to Reassess the Public Sale of Used Firearms

Credited from: CBSNEWS

  • Federal officials have raised concerns about the reselling of guns to the public, linking it to an increase in crime.
  • The ATF reported that over 1,000 people were killed with guns that belonged to police departments between 2019 and 2023.
  • More than 50,000 guns sold by police were later used in crimes, including murder, since 2006.
  • While the ATF recommended a reevaluation of this practice, they stopped short of advising law enforcement to cease it.
  • Some police departments, like Minneapolis and Indianapolis, have proactively stopped selling their used firearms.
