Parts with numbers matching guns owned by the corrupt Biden-Harris FBI and DEA — and that were supposedly retired and destroyed — are being found on so-called “ghost guns,” and federal watchdogs want to know how this is happening.
A recent audit of gun snapped up by law enforcement agencies across the country are continually finding that guns that have been pieced together — so-called “ghost guns” — are containing parts from guns once owned by federal agencies, according to the Washington Examiner.
It appears that members of the FBI and or DEA are secretly taking and selling the gun parts, the audit has found.
“We concluded that inadequate policies regarding the destruction of employee issued firearms create significant risks that firearms or their parts could be lost or stolen and used in subsequent crimes without accountability,” said the advisory memo from Justice Department Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz to FBI Director Christopher Wray and DEA Administrator Anne Milgram.
The issue was discovered last year when an unidentified suspect was arrested with a “ghost gun,” which is typically made from kits that in the past didn’t require a background check or registration.
While it investigated the case, the DEA realized that the barrel and slide came from a DEA gun that was to be destroyed in 2019. “According to DEA records, the slide and barrel were part of a DEA employee issued firearm that had been destroyed over three years earlier,” said the memorandum.
In conducting its inquiry, Horowitz discovered that the parts likely came out of unsecured barrels that both law enforcement agencies used to store the parts of employee guns to be destroyed.
The facilities where these decommissioned guns are kept is practically open to any agent and has no safeguards or lock down policies.
The auditors also discovered that neither the FBI nor the DEA has any formal policies or procedures to handle and log these guns, either.
