Private "gun dealers" foil the Seattle PD gun buy back.

[Ronin13]

I would buy at a Police sponsored gun show. Does anyone know when, or if any are scheduled on the Front Range?

I would imagine Denver would soon host one... I might show up to one with a few hundred bucks on hand to make some new purchases!

Buyback programs are just another misuse of taxpayers money. When will it stop (or at least slow down)

Careful, a pre-organized meeting of people selling guns could qualify as a gun show, and be subject to our "closed gun show loophole" laws... Requiring a background check.

But the police would be organizing it. I would just happen to meet one private citizen and strike up a conversation about what they might want to do with their firearm rather than sell it for a pre-paid Chuck-e-Cheese credit card.

What weapon do you currently own that you would give to the police in exchange for a $200 pre-paid Visa credit card? I like my single shot .22lr Remington 514 too much to let it go into that bin.

Be safe.

That is outstanding... Wow, good thinking on a lot of people's parts.

I was thinking about this a few weeks ago.. Seems like a good opportunity to me.

That's the best thing I've heard all day

Buy Back? That kills me. When did the Seattle PD sell those guns?

America at its best!
