HoCo Gun Buyback, March 16

[safecracker]

I never said it was anonymous. You pull right up to a platoon of cops in your car.

No, the Howard County PD did.

It's $100 for any gun. It does say "residents" can sell in guns so I'm assuming Hoco residents only. But then, it won't be anonymous. It also says that they will only buy a "complete firearm, but will not buy gun parts or pellet/BB guns," so I'm assuming that means no frames.

OP, are you sure that isn't last year's flyer? I don't think there is a buy back this year. Can't find anything about it anywhere else.

Hmm, I'm not sure. I Googled "Maryland gun buyback" and got that. Since it was on their page, I figured it might be current.

It appears to be last year:

That would have been hilarious to see a bunch of MdShooters members lined up in the middle of the street on March 16th asking "where's my money?". lol

I thought it was weird that it didn't say "2nd Gun Buy Back" or even have a year on the flyer. You may want to update the opening post that it is a false alarm.

Ah, stuck in the small picture and failing to see the big picture. Living for today, because tomorrow might never get here. When tomorrow gets here though, then it is "oh crap" time. If you have kids, tomorrow will eventually be here for them.

The metaphors are probably being lost in space, but such is life.

you do what you want and I will do the same no reason to be a dbag about it but whatever

Sad thing is that kind of stuff is probability in a cops gun safe somewhere!

Not here.

 

[Half-cocked]

I wonder if a homemade rubber band gun would qualify.... after all, in wussy-occupied HoCo it would probably suffice to get a kid expelled from school on a "weapons" charge.

I think we need to convince the liberals that all of those dangerous magazines or "clips" (anything holding more than 3 rounds) are also in need of $100 apiece buybacks. I have plenty of worn out old aluminum mags and could use a couple extra grand.

Watch them give out EBT cards during future buyback events. I'm just kidding...except that I'm not.

This is Howard County. They literally hand out $100 bills.

Serious question:

Does anyone know if they will buy zip guns?

I feel like that's an AOW. However, mount it in a pistol looking stock, and it might be legal. I can't see why they wouldn't take it. It's a functioning pistol. However, if you make it with the intent to turn it in, that would be manufacturing with the intent to sell, which is illegal unless you're an FFL07.

I am not sure these gun buy backs constitute a gun sale. As far as I am aware they never do any of the paperwork associated with a gun sale. What is their legal status anyway?

 

[Armati]

In the interest of Civil Disobedience, why not just turn in some homebrewed black powder matchlock pistols?

I am thinking a 4" piece of pipe, a pipe endcap, a pistol shaped wood stock, 2 hose clamps, and a serpentine made from bent wire.

Does a pop tart in the shape of a gun count? I got a box of them.
