Gun buyback

[benenglish]

Who's going? It seems like some hardware store homemade guns could turn a bit of profit.

Buying back fully automatic weapons for $200?!

I have a Raven I paid $50 for about 35 years ago. I could get a $150 gift card for it.
If they were paying cash I could put it toward a real gun.

 

[benenglish]

Come to think of it, I probably have a dozen junk guns worth less than $50. I probably wouldn't have to go to the hardware store to turn a profit.

I started the thread as a bit of a joke but now I'm considering it in a more positive light.

I also buy guns. But I pay cash like a real man.

Ben, they would be so proud of you, they could say the buy back was working and got dozens of guns off the street.

I wonder if they would take a pop tart made in the shape of a gun.

It was enough to get a 7 year old suspended from school.

You would probably get shot while waiting in line,
if not carjacked.

Wait a minute..... The POLICE--- who are charged with enforcing the LAW, are not going to arrest someone who turns in a fully automatic firearm. A firearm that is in violation Texas and Federal law unless the possesser has a Tax Stamp. That is not only criminal, it is unethical, stupid and dangerous. But then, look who is facilitating this mess.

I've read a couple of heartbreaking cases where an old widow showed up at these buybacks with her deceased husband's unregistered WWII bring-back. IIRC, one was a Stg. 44.

Thanks for pointing that out. I hadn't looked at it that way.

Ben, you could be on the news standing between Lil Sly Turn an SJL.

 

[KADFW]

If any of you guys in the area have 3d printers now is a good time to get a good ROI.

That is a frightening thought!

OK, back to the original plan. If I go, it'll be to stand on a corner a block away holding a sign that says "I pay more!"

LMAO. A rifle is:

• A rifle is a gun, especially one fired from shoulder level, having a long spirally grooved barrel.

I'mma gonna start calling my long guns a rifle with a long spirally grooved barrel.

What's long?
What happens with a twist rate barrel? Do you get twice the gift card points back? Where is the gift card to? - Academy, Cabelas or something - sounds ok. Hobby Lobby?

Popeye's

I wonder if ATF will be there to pick up the people turning in those machine guns. Bound to be a bunch turned in. Soon will be a bunch of cops with new machine guns in their personal collection.

All firearms must be stored inside the trunk of your vehicle.
What about pickup trucks ?
Ain’t got no stinkin trunk

 

[Eastexasrick]

Damn no trunk on my F250, my golf cart has a big plastic storage thing in back, looks kinda like a " trunk" think they will approve of that?

I'd buy a Raven for $50.00 cash, if you deliver it. You going to EZ-E's shoot in Sept?
