max power Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 My grandfather found this after his gun had been stolen. You can check the serial number of any gun you are considering and it will tell you if its been reported stolen. You can also add the serial number of any gun that has been stolen from you.http://www.hotgunz.com/From the website:Hotgunz.com is the internets largest user-submitted database of stolen guns. It was created to centralize the thousands of stolen gun posts scattered throughout the internet and create a "one stop" stolen firearm search database for people to quickly and easily perform a stolen gun check before they buy a used gun or check a gun already in their possession using the firearms serial number. Our stolen gun database is searchable by anyone and everyone in order to provide maximum exposure to the stolen gun and increase the likelihood of it being recovered. Our goal is to assist victims of gun theft in recovering their stolen firearm by making the stolen gun information accessible 24/7 to the thousands of people buying and selling used guns across the country. By making the stolen gun serial number and description available to potential unknowing purchasers of a stolen gun could prevent the gun thief from profiting by selling the hot gun and hopefully lead to the stolen firearm getting off the streets and back in the hands of the rightful owner.

max power Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 I'm guessing it was one of those, "we'll sell you the Hotguns name for $10k." And they probably said, "Um, F U, we'll use a z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
