Fairly common with these events. New Mexico offered more than what many guns are worth new. They ran out of funds very fast.

Anyone who would sell their gun in a border state while our government is under enemy occupation, needs their head examined.

“You sit in your car for an hour and a half you know for 200 dollars for one pistol, {laughs}, and you burn a lot of gas while you’re waiting too,”

...$20 tops for gas = $180. You made your choice so suck it up buttercup.

Americans own 400 million weapons, with 1 trillion rounds of ammo. Gun buybacks won't affect a things.

They forgot to bring ammo I guess that the libtards don’t want any idiots in-actions to realize the nexus. Stupid is as stupid does

Yeh, just a way to get rid of an old clunker that’s been laying around for many years. Won’t have any effect on gun violence as most are inoperable.

Our entire government is a fiasco.

These buyback programs sound like a good money making scheme. I’ve read where a working shotgun can be made from simple iron pipe fittings, a nail, spring and some wood for just a few bucks. Maybe put a spent shotgun shell in them (shot from a real gun). Those of us that are good wood workers can make the stock look like an assault rifle.

Make up a few of these and turn them in for hard cash.

I stilll believe these events just offer a chance for a perp who stole their gun to sell it and go out and steal another one.

I didn’t buy my gun from the government, so something like this wouldn’t be a “buy-back”. But if they did want to buy it, the asking price is $5-million.

In a somewhat roundabout way, one could characterize these events as “New guns for old!”

Guessing they didn’t check for stolen guns nor returned them to their rightful owner.
