http://www.guns.com/2016/12/05/a-look-at-some-weapons-turned-in-at-the-san-jose-annual-gun-buyback-video/
A whopping 690 firearms were turned in during a gun buyback event over the weekend in San Jose.
Participants received Target gift cards – and cold, hard cash once the gift cards ran out – in exchange for unwanted guns. More pictures and video at link.

There is ALWAYS a Ruger pistol. It's like a rule or something.

I don't mind people selling unused guns.
I hate that the government is going to destroy them. |

If you're willing to give up a gun for a target gift card, then I'm happy. I don't want someone with those brain cells and an AK.

Not sure what it is, but it isnt an M-16. If you look at the magazine, it is the mag well, there is no release on the side and the front pin looks weird

If memory serves it was a Yeager AP-74 looked like an m-16 / ar-15 from a distance. It was a 10 end mag fed. .22 mag went in to what looked like a regular mag sticking out. It was accurate, but was a jam o matic |

At taxpayer expense, so that the politicians can pretend they are helping, because of feelz The news said they run the serial numbers and if any are stolen they work to return them to the rightfull owners. If that is true it might be a win based on the cost paid to recover it for the owner. I'd like to see the follow up story. |

I really want to start a gofund me or similar to fund a gun buy back, use liberals cash to buy guns, then sell them legally/ return verified stolen ones with the assistance of an FFL. Maybe use the proceeds to donate the the NRA legal fund.
If anyone wants to run with that idea, all I want in return is any early 1911s that show up. |

I need to find some if these buybacks here in VA and score some good deals. I could have had a 1911 and a new 870 for 220 bucks.
