    When's the next CA gun buy-back program?

    Reading up on the hilarity of Gun buybacks and how Fuller Firearms became a multibillionaire company got me thinking... when's the next gun buyback program?

    Let's honestly think here. Last time I check, didn't the state of California consider a blackpowder rifle a firearm?

    Mosins? Gunsmith specials? 2x4's and plumber's pipe made into a firearm?

    No more than $20 invested into a firearm could soon turn into $50 or more.

    This could become a new past-time of mine.

    Mother of God...



    If there is a gun buyback program that gave just $100 per handgun, we could be millionaires with nothing but a C&R and a COE! Find me one DA that would prosecute me for purchasing 1,000 Nagant revolvers and turning them in for destruction.

      I think we need to look at this differntly.

      We need to PROMOTE these programs, so they'll fail!

      1. Encourage them to up the ante to around $1000 (because if it just saves one life... )
      2. ???
      3. PROFIT!

      This is really all the antis have? I suppose they expected the second amendment to list full names and social security numbers!

        LMAO!!! Now THAT would be news!

        Bishop, I think you have a point there! I'll check to see if any of my local yokels are doing something like this. That thousand bucks is a great idea. How great would it be to have the GFW's on the run??

                Do a search under Compton gun exchange on www.thehighroad.org to read about my trip to the buyback! They did it again in 2006 but only gave $50 gift card this time.

                  I read on CNN that Mexico City is giving out Xbox's for a gun buyback. If Oakland would do the same, I'm giving up my Hi-Point. So far I haven't had any burglars to use it on.
