You know after thinking about this a little more something occurred to me. The BATFE set up this store and put the word out that they would purchase stolen firearms. Then the criminals went out and stole guns to sell to the store. So, if the sting had never existed would the guns have been stolen in the first place? Who knows for sure, but it is something interesting to consider.
