And they want people to believe that some people turnuing in their guns that were told they would recieve no money said, “that’s ok.” What kind of dope would forfeit a gun and not want even the pittance they were offering? Hand in a new .45 caliber that retails for $700-$800 and you get $100, a voucher which may or may not pay out that $100 or NOTHING. Sounds like a lose, lose, lose proposition. I cannot see even 1 person OK with getting nothing in return unless a big lefty liberal inherited some old guns and their anti-gun sentiment would maybe turn them in, but I still can;t see even them not wanting at least the minimum $100 or $200 for a long gun.
ROTFL!!! Morons!
Those kind of guns (and anything close to that) are being skimmed by the police and the liberal hacks. No way are they being crushed or demolished.
Ammo buyback?
I’ve got a bunch of old 7.92mm Turkish army surplus Mauser rounds that are corrosive and give me misfires on every other round. It would be nice to get some cash for that. I couldn’t in good conscience sell it to another gun owner.
>> People should start turning in $10 water pipe zip guns ...
Pawn shop owners love these buybacks; they turn in all their crappy guns that they bought across the counter for $5 each.
Silly people foolishly turn in grandpa’s old gun ro that of another family member “before some child gets hurt...”
But they could have sold grandpa’s old gun for $2500 because it is a rare xxxxxxxx.
Ignorance can be cured but stupidity is permanent.
Well, if they are still promising “no questions asked” and “no checking of serial numbers or ballistics” then I suppose this might still be a good way to dispose of that weapon that might send you to prison under other circumstances.
Lol..maybe they should auction off some of the guns they collected, to pay for the vouchers.
If you have a POS gun trade it in for the $100 buyback...take the cash and upgrade. Of this does not apply if you live in rip-off Marin County.
A lot of people believe that Marin County is lily white and rich, but it ain’t so. Just across the county line from San Francisco is a “hell hole” known as Marin City, which, in my youth, was predominately black — it’s always been poor, very poor. Perhaps it should be called a ghetto! Marin City was originally built as housing for Shipyard workers during WWII.
In the 1960s Marin City was “re-developed” into high density public housing but quickly became a ghetto once again! One can only imagine the gun crime emanating from that carbunkle!
