Gun buyback again 🙄

[OkiePewPew]

So they’re trying to stop gun crime by offering barely maybe 1/3 market value. Probably closer to 1/4 (1/10 of higher end). The only positive I see in this is I could take my Jennings .22 and get a couple of high points or a Taurus G2C. Maybe a decent revolver. Certainly would be looking for a destroyed Anderson on gunbroker/Armslist and end up making a $150 or so profit. Hmm, so many possibilities to get new guns with stupid gov $. I may be going to shows and buying the cheapest pos semiauto pistols (like my Jennings) and just hold them for the next nearbuy buyback.
Just wow.

Ladies and gentlemen, gun buybacks are stupid. They are the ultimate expression of throwing away money at a problem, compounded with a fiscal stinginess. It has gotten so bad at this point that I actively encourage profiteering at the expense of the buyback in order to discourage the otherwise...

Like I have heard, how can you buyback something that you never owned? These programs likely just stimulate the drug trade as people trade in guns they never paid for so they can "shoot up" the profits.

Ok - AR magazines they will pay you $35 for. You can buy those online new for like $10-12, so I think I see a way for you to turn some cash...
