No, not every firearm starts out as a legal firearm. Employees have made receivers disappear in the past, and the google machine will provide you with many examples of homemade firearms. The basic knowledge of modern firearm design is 18th century tech. Nevermind 3d printing machines that can produce workable firearms.
My point was, however, how if the federal govt cannot be trusted when it comes to operations such as fast and furious, why should they be trusted with the process of striping Americans of their unalienable rights?

California (former) Dem. senator Yee, a proud anti gun supporter who proposed many gun control bills, was himself indicted on conspiracy to traffic
illegal firearms, and sell them to criminals for profit. Understand why Americans are a little hesitant to follow gun control directives?
This of course, is ignoring the truth that gun related homicide has been on a steady, measurable decline for the last 30 years in the US.
