ADVANCE FOR WEEKEND EDITIONS APRIL 23-24 - In this Thursday, April 4, 2016 photo, Corp. Brian Morel, an ATF Task Force officer, uses a magnifying glass to read this gun's serial number at his desk in the Davenport Police station in Davenport, Iowa. Morel then can input it into the National Tracing Center, the ATF's online database that lists all guns sold through a licensed federal firearms dealer. While the database cannot tell officers whether the gun was reported stolen, the information obtained can serve as a jumping-off point for investigators as they try to track down its origin.
