"Guns to Gardens" gun buyback event

[Eric P]

Every gun was sawed to pieces in front of you, in front of at least 20 witnesses, just before they gave you the gift card(s).

$50 for rifles and shotguns
$150 for handguns
$250 for "assault rifles"
Only redeemable at King Soopers.

That person received $450 worth of King Soopers gift cards in exchange for the Blackhawk (150), scoped Remington 700 (50), and AR15 (250).

Absolutely no way for any volunteer to steal one.

I was told all the metal was taken by a local blacksmith, who was one of the guys in an orange vest.

$450 was probably the value of that scope alone.

Not a matter of someone stealing one. Or cutting them up. A transfer still happened. If it was documented with 20 witnesses...

Illegal transfer between parties. All transfers require a background check though an FFL and a 3 day wait before receiving the firearm...

Both the program and sellers are guilty. The anti gunners wanted this nonsense, so enforce it.

I have looked into a bit and can't find a source for the funding.

Them Red Stripes ain't free- who is behind this nonsense?

[JoeRoss]

I believe it is the Presbyterian Church who funds this. The metal is used to make garden tools. Thus the name.

Sawing isn’t an approved method of destruction. I’d argue that they still transferred guns at least twice illegally. In addition to I assume cutting barrels to a NFA length. God help them if they destroyed a serial number too…….

[Scanker19]

Their Bible must have left out the book of Joel.

As much as we would like to see it, prosecutorial discretion would keep them from being charged with anything.

If you're unarmed, you are a victim.

Dang! Now I want sardines. And not the cheap ones I have in my cupboard. Outstanding choice of groceries.
