127. No prosecutions
So what good is this law if Vermont never prosecutes corrupt gun dealers? And it certainly isn't any good for tracking guns because there's no way to track a gun if there's no ballistic record or if the serial number is destroyed. This has been the method of recording guns for decades, it doesn't work. There's no record of what happens to the gun after the first buyer sells it.

Vermont has one of the worst records of prosecuting gun laws. Pretty easy to have low statistics on anything when you don't prosecute anything. That's part of that leadership I was talking about.
