They probably feel that it is their right to keep a gun. (And I can hear the shower of complaints over that last comment of mine. I don't mean everyone at the DoJ, but I'm sure there are some agents- or whoever- who do report their weapons as stolen but keep them for themselves.) My God, how does one lose a gun?
