wtf why would you support this. Im sure there are people out there who would love to own your old shotguns.

I would rather sell them on GB.com for $10 bucks each before giving them away for free to the ****ing State of MD to use a properganda for the anti gun cuase!

I received this via email a few minutes ago.

Anne Arundel County Police Department to Hold Voluntary Gun Turn-In as
Part of Inaugural Statewide Gun Turn-in Day on Saturday, May 11

Residents can drop off unwanted firearms, no questions asked

Once surrendered, the firearm will be processed through law enforcement databases to determine if it has been reported as being stolen or flagged as being a firearm that was used in the commission of a crime.

One of these things would have to be false: Either no questions are asked or the guns are processed. If a firearm turns up a hit (i.e. was used to commit a crime), I'm sure some questions are going to be asked.

No incentive? The turnout will determine how successful the demonization of guns/gun owners have been.

I would hang around the Cumberland PD to see what I can buy, but I think it would be a waste of my time.

Nobody in here has the BALLS to try and buy guns by walking up and down the line at a gun turn-in event.

NOBODY.

I do, however, like the excuses some on here have for not doing it.

As for me, I WOULD do it, but I have to mow my lawn that day. DAMN!

I went to the HoCo turn in. Ended up with a wonderful .30-06

It would be great if every mds member turned in a cheapo air rifle just to see if they post bogus numbers on types on firearms since they did include air rifles

Hey!! Mine's legit!!!

Why is it labeled "Gansler's" - is he footing the bill for it, or scoring the profit from it, or a mix of the two?

We, as PRM taxpayers, are footing the bill and he is reaping the glory of making Maryland safe for children, kittens and unicorns.

"Quite candidly, we're aware in some cases [buyback programs] actually stimulate crime," says McCarthy. "People actually go out to steal a gun in order to turn it back in for cash."

Popkin says he's aware some will offer to buy guns near turn-in locations to sell them for a profit.

"That has happened in different jurisdictions," says Popkin. "We'll make sure where we have this strategically set up, that will not be happening."

Looks like they will be trying to make it difficult for anyone wanting to try to buy guns people are turning in. And I like how he insinuates that those buying guns at these events are criminals.

Should I bother with going and trying to buy?

Isn't a FTF transfer of regulated firearms supposed to be done only at an MSP barracks?

jpo183 · May 7, 2013

I was going to go but since there is no incentive I doubt there will be any show. I am looking for an old 357/38 too

I have two old shotguns that I am honestly afraid to shoot that were given to me. i may actually run these over to them. they are a mess

I had an old cheap shotgun I was afraid to shoot. took it to a live gun auction and got $125 for it

Just spoke with the duty officer at the local MSP barrack (our location), he said there is no problem if people want to do person to person transfers on-site. He clarified the the basic "the person receiving would have to come back as not disqualified for regulated firearms" and "wait the 7 days"

He confirmed walking away with a non-regulated firearm would be fine.
