Hey Fabs, you should know by now that the government does not have to show results that any program is doing what it said it would.
 Skeet, I fully understand what you are saying, that is why I stated it was my opinion. I have learned with time that even if it does not agree with my opinion, it does not mean that it is wrong.

I'd sell them the junk. I remember when a local anti gun group in NE send out anti gun flyers. They ask the if you are interested in becoming a member send them a note and they would send out a membership package. A good number of gun owners requested the membership package which were dumped when they arrived. Cleaned out the anti's inventory. They didn't have the bucks to replace it and in short order were out of business. If we help the buy back program along with junk then they will be out of money. I just see it as a chance to unload some unsafe or crappy fireams. Hey its better than dropping them in the ocean.

I have a couple of broken junkers out the house. I mean REAL junk. Stuff that wasn't worth $50 when it was new, and you can't get parts for them. If they had a buy back program in my area I would have already sold them and used the cash to buy a functioning firearm. The one time I saw one of these programs going on I was on a buisness trip and didn't have them on me. A big city was offering $125 a gun no question asked, cash money. If I had had them with me I would have taken the cash, and giggled all the way to a sporting goods store.
I don't condone selling functioning decent quality guns to them, but again as other said I don't condemn folks for it either. What hurts is to see nice rifles, and antique arms sold to them that are going to be destroyed... GoodOlBoy

A few years back I was watching the news and they were interviewing people comming out from selling guns. Most of them were laughting and telling that what they turned in was junk and that they were going to use the money to but a gun that worked. It was really great because right before these guy they had the idiots on camera telling how many guns they had taken off the streets. I couldn`t stop laughing for a good while after that news cast.
