The state can’t buy something back that it never owned.

Third party buyers often attend "buybacks." I am guessing having the Cops remove the weapon from the trunk keeps potential third party buyers from seeing the goods.

Most are junk weapons, more than few probably stolen. But, many people are being lazy. A working weapon at a gun show, or pawnshop can fetch more money in cash or trade. People do not know what they have.
