In March 2001, the Department of Justice Office of Inspector General reported that the Immigration and Naturalization Service could not account for over 500 of its firearms. Furthermore, in July 2001, the Federal Bureau of Investigation disclosed that 449 of its firearms were lost or stolen. Given the possible threat that lost, stolen, or missing firearms poses to the public, GAO assessed (1) the consistency of federal agencies' firearms controls with federal internal control standards and related criteria; and (2) compliance by Justice and Treasury agencies with established firearms controls and improvements made to strengthen and enforce controls. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-688/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-688.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-688/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-688.pdf GAO-03-688 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-688 Other Written Product GAO-03-688; Firearms Controls: Federal Agencies Have Firearms Controls, but Could Strengthen Controls in Key Areas; Federal agencies Firearms Law enforcement agencies Internal controls Title 31 Section 3511 Title 31 Section 3512 31 U.S.C. 3511 31 U.S.C. 3512 Title 38 Section 904 38 U.S.C. 904 Public Law 107-296
