What does the gov't do with all the guns it seizes?
Advertisements [?]
I was reading page after page listing guns seized by law enforcement in (I think it was) THE WALL STREET JOURNAL a week or so ago.

At the bottom of every page was the proviso: "this is not an advertisement." It apparently is some kind of legal notice telling the owners that they can appeal the seizures if they want to try to get their property back.

Ignoring the issue of whether this is right or wrong . . . what happens to all the guns the BATF or law enforcement confiscates?

Who sells them and how would one buy them?
