Same thing happened in California around 1999 I think. "Assault Weapon" ownership was conservatively estimated at about 8 million in private hands. Less than 300,000 were registered.

As much as the liberals bleated about the registration not being used, BS!

Someyears after the registration, I got into radio scanning and heard a call to a domestic disturbance and the dispatcher told the cops that the record showed assault weapons being registered to that address.

The cops most certainly have that info at their fingertips, at least the ones where I lived in Ventura county did at the time. Cannot be better now a decade later.
