Most pawn shops have to make a list of all items pawned, the models numbers and the serial numbers. Those lists are collected by the local Police Depts and the information checked against stolen equipment reports. The shop will learn later if they have a stolen pawned item.

Cops typically check for stolen and pawned jewelry by accessing databases that track pawned items, such as the National Pawn Database or local pawn shop records. They may also collaborate with pawn shops to alert them about recently reported stolen items. Additionally, police can conduct inspections of pawn shops, asking for information on specific pieces or checking the shop's inventory against stolen property reports.

What happens if i sold a pawn shop a stolen gun?

Pawn shops are a legitimate business, and tightly regulated under state and Federal laws. To pawn anything, you will have to provide them with your ID. If a firearm has been reported to the police as stolen, information on that gun will be entered in the NCIC computer system. When you sell that stolen gun to the pawn shop, and they enter it into their inventory, the computer system recognizes it as a stolen firearm. You get visited by the police who arrest you for possession of stolen property.

Do criminals mainly purchase guns in pawn shops?

No, despite the public perception. For a pawn shop to pawn or sell firearms, they must have a Federal Firearms license. When buying a gun from a pawn shop, you will complete the same paperwork, police background check, etc, as if you were buying from a gun store. Criminals obtain their guns mainly by stealing them. I enjoy shopping in pawn shops, and occasionally you find good bargains there. PS- as far as pawn shops selling stolen goods- they are regulated by the police, you will need ID to pawn or sell an item there. Pawned items are checked by the police against a list of items reported stolen.
