Is there an on line clearing house that would show listings of guns REPORTED stolen (brand, model and S/N)? I see a lot of guns at flea markets and would like to have a way of verifying before buying.

TXDPS does not release that information on a web site.

for the most part, you can generally call in and have desk officer or dispatch run the serial number. Be prepared to provide some information if the weapon comes back stolen :oops:

Florida has a site, but it's for guns stolen in Florida only..
A search for "stolen guns" on google turns up several hits.

http://www.stolenweapon.com/ and http://www.hotgunz.com/ are a couple, but I doubt they're complete.
