I would guess there are any number of things that could result in someone "ghosting" a firearm purchase.
Death of course is one obvious one, especially where family is unaware of the firearm purchase.
Some people no doubt have sudden health problems. Some folks may end up in jail and be unable to come claim.
Probably a lot of good reasons we just haven't thought of.
Makes me wonder, in such cases, who is the actual "owner"? Is it considered shop inventory? If so, is there a reasonable period in law where ownership of unclaimed goods revert to the posesser/holder?
