Post by: sisu on November 18, 2010, 12:01:44 PM: What do you guys think about these type of web sites? Any good or just a fart in the dark.

Either way Mike. From what I gather is you can list your gun(s) so there is more data base to find a stolen weapon or you can check to see if the one you are interested in is stolen.

Who runs this site and who has access to all the listings? What might all that info be used for?

Maybe it's just another way to show ads and collect personal information.
