GUN BUYBACK!!!

[ThrottleJockey]

There is a gun buy back scheduled for July 14 at Noon. Can't find anything online about it yet and didn't catch the location, some charter school on the NE side.........just saw it on WTHR 13 news. Anyone with more info, post it up please, these are a good way to get cheap guns!

You're allowed to buy guns at these from the people in the lines?

Why would you not be allowed to buy guns from the people in lines?

Why not? It would just be a FTF transaction. I've seen it done in other states with success.

Wait a second. At a school?

maybe the NRA should sell em some junk guns again

So, if you bought a gun from someone who was there to turn one in, and it was on school property, you are possessing a gun on school property. Isn't that a felony??
And what about the person that brought the gun, haven't they commited a crime??

Good catch! As stated though, I am uncertain of the exact location.

Perhaps this could be the loophole they need to keep us from buying? Just catch people on the street before they enter the property?

It's not illegal when the police do it, apparently.

 

[trapperDave]

Me either, it was on the WTHR 13 news and they said there would be more coverage this evening...I'll post more when I find it.

Never had expiernce with one of these but why would u just turn a gun in? That sounds as dumb as a football bat. Unless it was used in a crime. Then I guess someone would sell it cheap.

They get free groceries and gift cards and stuff....usually grandpa died and grandma doesn't know what to do with that old pistol he brought back from the war.....

Or... like the shooting club did in Illinois recently. Collect all of your busted, broken, non-working handguns and turn them in for $50 gift cards. Then use the gift cards to buy ammo for your shooting events!

Still looking for info on this one...

Who's bashing? According to the article, the event is happening at a school and it's either a misdemeanor (first offense), felony (second offense) or a Federal felony (if you don't have a license) to have a gun on school property in Indiana.

The event starts at noon on July 14th at the Challenge Academy School.

Thanks for the link!

Interesting:

The event starts at noon on July 14th at the Challenge Academy School. Anyone turning in a gun must show valid identification. You will get $50 per gun turned in.

So it IS at a school. I suppose the school's admin could authorize everyone who brings a gun that day.

Anyone want to sit just off-site and snipe some deals?
