How about theft?

Word is that dealer is missing an awful lot of guns, enough that if it were theft he WOULD have noticed them missing and reported it. That many don't disappear off the books without the store owner knowing.

I heard 350 are missing as of his last audit. Outlandish as that may seem, I doubt the guns were stolen or sold under the counter. What likely happened is that some lowly clerk forgot to log the gun out of the "Acquisition & Disposal" log that gun dealers are required to keep. Doubtless he could go back to his stack of yellow sheets and find out who the AR was sold to. With the kind of money we dealers make on guns, there's just no real incentive to sell guns with no paperwork (is the $200 I'm gonna make on this sale REALLY going to be worth 5 years in prison?)

I thought the guns were missing but the boxes were still there, stacked neatly with the barcode labels facing outward, ready for inventory.
