not to say purchasing a gun and 'losing' it or having it 'stolen' should immediately get you charged with a crime... but i would think if this becomes a repeated thing then some red flags would be raised.

Yup it does in which the ATF investigates the "misplaced" firearms. And to be honest, I don't give a **** what the ATF says. Because every criminal I've found with a gun when I ask them where'd you get it I'm told that they stole it. I speak from experience, not statistics.
