Federal firearms laws on stolen guns?

There are no specific federal statutes, per se, regarding firearms that are stolen. Guns are considered "property" under the laws of all states, and as such the Possession or Receiving of Stolen Property is a prosecutable offense under STATE LAW. It is against federal law to possess a firearm from which the serial number has been filed off or is disfigured so as to be unreadable. Stolen and recovered firearms are considered "property." When recovered, if they are traceable, they are returned to their rightful owners.

Firearms don't have registration numbers, they have serial numbers. No way to know who was the first to put a number on a firearm. Military firearms have had serial numbers for many years, to aid in the accounting for large numbers of identical guns. Serial numbers were not required by law in the US until the 1934 National Firearms Act reqired them on machine guns and handguns. The 1968 Gun Control Act required them on newly made rifles and shotguns.

Could a modern gun leave a factory without a serial number?

Theoretically, yes. For instance, it could be stolen by an employee. However, such a gun would be illegal to sell in most countries. In US, there are some guns that may be made legally without serial numbers. It is legal for any person to manufacture a firearm for their own use, provided they are not barred from owning guns by law and the firearm in question does not fall under NFA regulation. Such guns do not need serial numbers.

How do you register a gun with out a serial number?

First, in MOST of the US, there is no requirement for registration of ordinary rifles, shotguns, or handguns. Second, while in the US it is illegal to REMOVE a serial number, or to possess a gun that has had the serial number removed or made unreadable- not all guns HAD a serial number. Prior to the 1968 Gun Control Act, no Federal law required that rifles or shotguns have a serial number, and there are large numbers of those guns that have never had a serial number- and possession of those is perfectly legal. For recordkeeping on those guns, the serial number is recorded as NSN- No Serial Number. I collect older 22 rifles, and have about 30 that were made prior to 1968. Only 2 of the 30 have serial numbers.

How do guns get unmarked?

Guns can become unmarked through various methods, including the removal or alteration of serial numbers, which is often done to conceal their origin. This can involve grinding, filing, or using chemicals to erase identifiers. Additionally, illegally manufactured firearms may be produced without any markings at all. Such practices are typically associated with criminal activities, as they hinder law enforcement efforts to trace firearms.

Guns without serial numbers?

There are two different issues with lack of a serial number. First. some rifles and shotguns have never HAD a serial number. They were not required by US Federal law until 1968. Second- it is a Federal felony to remove a serial number, or possess a gun with a removed serial number. So if the gun never had a serial number- not a problem. If it has been removed- BIG problem.
