For ie - the store received 10 guns. Once in a while - the inspector will audit them and check if each gun is accounted for. In other word - a better and sophisticated record system similar to pharmacy way. Something that government didn't touch for a while because of concerned citizens and NRA-politicians with this big brother stuff. But I think it's a win-win situation... that's if we want our Amendment 2 with less restrictions.

As I recall, the liquor industry in this country is the only business where the owners can't "touch" their own products. What happens is, in the alcohol distillation plants, there's a government employee who oversees the inventory and as soon as the product is labelled, a government green or red seal is placed on the bottle's neck, over the cap; then product is boxed, sealed and sent to a government warehouse. After that, when the companies want to sell/distribute their product, it must be inventoried out of the government warehouses. This was an idea convceived out of the Prohibition days....
I am not sure of the ramifications of doing the same with the firearms manufacturers as there's always a way around this with black marketers.
