Political theater designed to delegitimize armed citizens. Its only real effects are to victimize ignorant widows by giving them paltry sums for valuable property, wasting of police resources, and increasing demand for new guns.

This could be a good opportunity for some local activism and the chance to obtain some decent guns at good prices.

Rival buybacks have met with “mixed” success. The legal homework has to be done first, so that any buffalo from the gendarmes can be countered on the spot.

In the meantime, gather any garbage gun and by all means sell it to these chumps.

I wish my town would do a “buy-back.” I have a couple of non useful guns I should like to get rid of and get a few dollars, too. The only folks who would buy these pieces are “buy-back’ fools.

We see these stories almost every morning thanks to the tireless efforts of marktwain, yet there seems to be little realization that these “gun bounty” programs amount to little more than incentive for the theft of firearms. These local police departments, perhaps unbeknownst to themselves, are acting like de-facto fences for stolen property.

Can someone tell me if criminals ever turn their guns in?? How about a reward program for turning in those that commit welfare and disability fraud?
