In general I would agree but I can also see why a large city wouldn't want a large number of cheap crappy guns out there. While only a few should make it into the hands of bg's, if you don't make much then it isn't worth it.

Where can I find information on the sale of the weapons? Who is selling the weapons ? Does the law require the selling of weapons to the public or is this a closed sale to local police and dealers?
:headscratch
It would be a county auction and some depts would sell them at the same time as they would sell cars or other property but in any case it would be a county by county decision. The new law would allow them to take the guns and just sell them to a FFL.
