It's a fun article about a plan that went wrong

I'm waiting for a similar buyback here. I have a 50 year old Saturday Night Special that I am dying to unload!

I made $2000 off slip pipes and shotgun shells.


I got a S&W model 10, older than that and it is my daughters daily carry pistol. Most accurate handgun I own. Looking for another.

I dont understand who in their right mind, considers law enforcement to be the ones in charge of receiving these guns from people? How could they possibly think that is appropriate?!! LOL I guess whoever organized the buyback is to blame.

Comments in article are comedy gold.

“Did they really turn in a black powder revolver? I’m so glad they were able to stop John Marston from robbing any more trains with it,” one person said.

Other comments were just as vicious.

“Michigan City PD finally broke up the infamous Metamucil gang,” another one said. “They committed most of their crimes between 6 AM and 1 PM, before nap time.”

I love how the article talked statistics that you were more likely to die form clubs, knives, and hands and feet than these type of weapons...

It is slightly amusing until you realize that they paid all that out with taxpayer $ which makes them thieves and ridiculous at the same time.

I have an old pistol worth about $20 that I would gladly take $100 for.
