Note that if you have a barrel making machine you probably don't need to ditch whole firearms after traceable incidents. New barrel makes for new bullet stria.

Although I would expect incidents in the UK involving military-type firearms to be so conspicuous that it wouldn't make much difference. For example and from recent news blurbs:Chicago is the US poster child for firearms crime these days but last year though the siezed c.750 illegal frearms only 4% of those were "assualt rifles".

I would expect that that military-grade weapons would be far more conspicuous i9n UK crime statistics. I think your group needs the Permanent Secretary to the Home Minister to have gone to Eton with the head of your group or something like that. Said conveninet firiend could bury a lot of incident reports under the Official Secrets Act and "MIWhatever v. Terrorists" seems so much more likely than "secret rogue group v. vampires" to whoever is likely to file the first crime scene reports.

You don't really seem to want to simplify the problem but if you did you could arm the group with SAS hand-me-downs. At least US Special Forces upgrade theri gear cosntantly and the precise IDs of such weapons were all classified "Burn Before Reading" in the first place. "Fell off the back of a Black lorry" would be all the explanation you needed for a _lot_ of things.
