They could well be refurbed GSA surplus.

How about a nice clean 286? Running Windows 3.0. Barely. Only used on Sunday...

:lol:

Can't wait for the first report of someone getting their head bashed in with a computer.

Do you have to be a city resident? Provide proof?

I have a POS 16ga that I would trade in a heart beat.

If its no questions asked them they can't ask where you live.

why isn't this on the major news media
:innocent0

I wonder if they would take an old, barreled Mauser action? It was in a house fire and completely useless. Hmmm....

It's a gun, so yeah :thumbsup:

Looks like they're giving out Dell E6400 laptops and an unknown HP tablet.

They Dell laptops can't possibly be new since they came out in 2008.

When they were new they cost upwards of $1800, but now you can pick them up for $100-$150.

KSFrostie · Jul 24, 2015

Dell E6400s are complete POS. I have 2 E6410 that I retired a couple of years ago. Are we sure that is what they are giving away?

vgplayer · Jul 24, 2015

What if I use the laptop to help me build more guns :innocent0

j_h_smith · Jul 24, 2015

The tablet they are giving to you is a Trio Stealth G5 which can be bought at Best Buy for $99.99 regular retail price. Don't know about the laptops.

teratos · Jul 24, 2015

I have an old Phoenix .22 I paid probably $50 for. Too bad I'm busy.....

You could always have your own "buyback" program? :innocent0

I bet they'll be media there.

How funny would it be if 30 or so of us did actually show up with old computers. You would have to really sell it with that surprised look on your face when they tell you it's the other way around.

That'd be hilarious....

XCheckR · Jul 24, 2015

Damn. I was hoping it was the other way....I have a few old laptops laying around

wonder if some locals are doing this very exchange in the parking lot (steal a laptop and then trade it for a gun )

:innocent0

BTW - if I gave somebody a computer for a handgun - that would be illegal

how do these people get away with it and "no questions asked"

Because they are convinced that they are all (well, mostly) "crime guns", and they'll be able to CSI their way into arrests after the fact.

Muleskinner · Jul 24, 2015

Wholesale prices on low end laptops are right around $100, Some tablets are $30. Even the worst piece of crap firearm is more valuable than that. These buybacks promote gun theft and gives the anti 2A community a reason to thump their chest and say "lookee what we did"....Participating in it forwards their rhetoric....don't do it...

Epoxy it to a piece of 2X4 for a stock and it will look like some of the pictures of confiscated guns.

Gambler · Jul 24, 2015

So are we allowed to offer cash to the people in line trading in something nice?

And wrap a bunch of rubber bands around the 2x4
