Ialso agree with the reasons Dan Stated except when you get rid of the junk broken guns you can get enough for a good partial payment on a good one. That is what we did. I sold some junk crap and bought a nice NEW S&W 29. Still have it. They gave me 50 bucks a piece for broken junk(2 old broken hammer shotguns an Arminius 22 some ol broken 25 auto and an old top break 32 revolver that was without a cylinder) and when they asked me in front of the camera what I was gonna do with the money I told 'em...buy a new handgun, of course. I waited till I had the money, though!! 5 of us that worked in the Fire Dept sold 'em junk...and bought new. PO'd the mayor big time cause he was there for a photo op.. and we were in uniform.. In later years they changed it to giving people 50 bucks worth of groceries. . That program REALLY didn't work
