WASHINGTON (AP) -- The ATF lost 76 weapons and hundreds of laptops over five years, the Justice Department reported Wednesday, blaming carelessness and sloppy record-keeping.
Thirty-five of the missing handguns, rifles, Tasers and other weapons were stolen, as were 50 laptops, the internal audit found. Two of the stolen weapons were used in crimes.
Additionally, ATF employees did not report 13 of the 76 lost weapons, or 365 of the 418 missing laptops, to internal affairs as required. ATF officials also did not report much of the lost equipment to the Justice Department.

And these are the idiots that think they should be the ones that make policy when it comes to our right to own weapons...
kinda funny how they hold gun dealers to a higher standard of precision with regard to their record-keeping than even they seem to be capable of.
