Makes me sick. All the AR's, AK's, MAC90's, TEC-9 all going to get chopped!! Sad!

I love CNN's "expert" can't tell the difference between an AT4, LAW, and an RPG. How do I get a gig like that?

Saw a news report on this a few days ago, the reporter said "Most of these guns will be destroyed" what happens to the rest ? Do they go to the private collections of the collecting officers ? Or are they kept as plant pieces for bad officer shootings ?

I'm surprised they got anything for turning it in. It is seriously just a tube... certainly not a firearm and is not reloadable, even IF you could find a suitable projectile..

I saw that at one of the buybacks, a lady brought in a genuine STG 44 and the cops told her that they would not accept it because its value. I guess her grandfather or father picked it up in Europe during WW2. At least those cops were nice enough to tell her it was worth more than a grocery card!
