Show Notes
Everytown for Gun Safetys report reveals a troubling trend: hundreds of legally purchased guns from southern states ending up at crime scenes in northern cities with strict gun laws. Academy Sports plus Outdoors is among the stores where buyers resold weapons illegally. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has identified major paths for these guns, with less than 30% recovered out of state. Advocates and experts emphasize the role of licensed sellers in preventing illegal sales and working with law enforcement. States and local police are stepping up efforts to track these flows and close gaps in gun trafficking.
