These buyback programs have taken thousands of guns off the streets and put hundreds of thousands of dollars into the hands of holiday shoppers. While this poster suggests you'll receive cold hard Benjamins, you'll actually be given a debit card, which is ironically NOT taken in many of Brooklyn's finest farm-to-table restaurants. However, most bistros will accept firearms as barter...
In all seriousness it was only just now that I realized how effective these can be...not that hardened criminals routinely turn in their guns, but rather that people that would have SOLD THEM to hardened criminals are given a safe alternative. Pass along...

How nutty that they'll only pay for 3 guns. I wouldn't want to meet the folks who have more than 3 guns---but if one of those gun-collectors is thinking of surrendering the whole armory, why not provide the incentive? Is the budget for this that threadbare, really??
Wow, that poster shows pretty much the worst possible way to safely hand a gun to someone. Glad that guy's turning it over.
