A $500 buyback would encourage me to go pick up a Hi-Point or other inexpensive pistol and then take that money to drop on something else.

This is the kind of crap you get when an airhead tries to create something and they barely have enough neurons firing to breathe without help.

Well, gun buybacks are automatically stupid since it is still possible to buy new firearms. How could anyone possibly think they can reduce the number of guns when gun makers will just make more? Even the govt. is smarter than this. When they did the buy-back of automobiles it was specifically intended to sell more automobiles. Buy-back programs are always going to be welfare for gun owners. They take old, broken guns in to the buy-back and receive cash to go buy newer, better guns.

Still, I'm glad these buy-backs exist as they make for entertaining threads on FR.
