+ The DEA has essentially nothing to do with this topic.

+ 52,000 guns is approximately how many guns Americans buy in any given day.

+ The market impact of government agencies selling old guns exists but is minuscule.

The DEA has to do with this topic since you are contradicting a federal decision.

Your use of statistics here is meaningless. 52000 is not the number of guns they put on the street.

The market impact is real and covered in the article. People specifically search for police guns because they are cheap relative to other properties that make them appropriate for human on human violence.
