Boating accident? No, Officer, I don’t own a boat. I turned my guns in during the last gun buy-back down at City Hall - ammo too.

And the receipts they gave you when you turned them in? Did those fall out of the boat?

NY'ers merely need to refuse to register. Very simple, although I admit that if I did it, I would probably end up losing my job.

That’s an excellent response, requires no proof, no need to show reports of accident,loss or theft, no receipts required...Perfect.

“I lost them in a boating accident”, is overplayed and invokes suspicion, buy back is after all a Gov’t program.
