Turn in a gun, get a Kroger gift card

[gunrunner32]

WI need to organize my own 'gun buy back'. Especially if I could have an officer on hand to run BG checks and take possession if it's stolen. I bet if you lay out $50/gun, you could EASILY make a killing, even after you got rid of the crap.

I'm definantly down for something like that...that is if we can do it this coming spring, I'll be able to push quite a bit of money into that around that time, and my wife likes it when I can find a deal on guns since she knows I'm going to buy them anyways. I say we start looking into what we need to do to make it legal and doing something like that here around Nashville, that should appease this half of the state I would think...and it'd be a great meet and greet.

For anyone who wants to set up shop outside this Kroger and offer these people some real money for their firearms.

What will they give us if we bring a Liberal to turn in?

Here is a legitimate concern I have with turn ins... I think gun turn ins encourage thugs to steal guns to get the reward. Thus these turn ins could actually be causing crime, not preventing it.

Are liberals worth anything??

Are liberals worth anything??

They get a free gift card because other people are getting them for actually turning something in...

They should have to turn in their guns to get welfare and food stamps.

I gonna offer $35 a gun and see if I get something cool.

It is possible.

In texas, the police were doing a buy back program and a gun group setup near buy and paid more in face to face exchange if my memory is correct.

Kroger gift card swap brings in 90 guns | The Tennessean | tennessean.com

Turns out it was a success; well in la-la logic.

Quote from article:

"As a whole, the collection of weaponry, surrendered to Metro police by average-looking Nashvillians over the course of four hours on Saturday, seemed sinister."

Sinister?!? What they have are a bunch of breach loaded shottys and some old .22 revolvers. What would they say about my gun closet, or yours??? Wow... sinister.. wow. Gun stores are full of weapons; more than 90 at least. What makes a weapon sinister? The fact that it just a hunk of metal or plastic machinery that can launch a projectile? Sh#t, if that's the case they better not be coming for my brad nailer... it does the same thing!

Once again, the media assigning blame to a tool that has no chance of being used in a "sinister" manner until it's held by someone with sinister intentions. It's no more sinister than any other object. I'm sure you could use a Nobel Peace Prize to murder someone with the proper amount of force and motivation.

On the news the other day I saw what looked like a nice Carbine in the pile of weapons!

Before I go totally senile, I hope I remember to sell off mine, or give them to someone who appreciates them.

I would even prefer for them to be stolen than end up like those given away by some stupid relative.
