The same way registering your car is a deterrent against hit-and-run.


Actually legally sold/imported guns can be easily traced already via ballistics. Instead of a master goonsquad database, it requires law enforcement to get subpoenas, track point of sale and subpoena sales records at the shop level. Do some detective work.

If you use guns from the general legal market to commit a crime, they will find you.

You are showing your commitment to your religion, and your disregard of science again.


Not quite. Ballistics can tell you if any given gun matches the bullet that was fired. There is no ability to look at the bullet and determine what gun it was fired from if you don't already have the weapon.
