Without a Trace?

The number of traces have continued to increase since then, averaging about 33,000 traces a year in the last four years. [More]
Question:  Does this number include traces for guns turned in at all those stupid "buy back" theatrical events?  Because, if so, just this one local event would account for about 7.5%.

    "If we can prevent just one violent crime by tracing crime guns with our state and local partners, I will consider this program a success," said Torres.

    I don't see one example of any crime being solved, let alone being prevented, by tracing.

    37,253,956.
    The total population of California.
    Divided by 36,000, it means one traced "crime gun" per every 1,129 people.
    0.001 percent of potential gun owners, and probably 0.003 percent of actual gun owners.
    A "crisis."
