Not really. To be honest it just means the criminals are more careful and commit less crimes as a result. The guns in illegal hands are still there. Not to mention any competent person in the world with a decent milling machine and lathe could turn out serviceable guns as long as they could get the stock to machine it from. It's not possible to uninvent anything whether it is a weapon or a camera. So lets get back to photography. Kent Gittings
