you wouldnt see this in CA

I think these were seized from criminals, not from a gun buy back. I just thought it was cool that they are offering them to the public instead of melting them down

to be fair, a good portion of those are probably stolen and unclaimed or just pieces of crap

If someone wants to buy a gun , they're gonna buy a gun. Disposing of them is just a political statment.

kommifornia believes criminals would come and buy the guns back from the pd so the whole idea gets tossed out the window so they can save the lives of thousands of millions of chewdrens, puppies and kittens as we know, for every gun in kommifornia, 10 chewdren, 50 puppies and kittens die everyday just due to its existance.

It's not even that. The politicians in this state want people to think it's the guns themselves that are the problem. If a gun was used by someone in a robbery, when Joe Schmoe upstanding citizen gets his hands on the same gun he'll become a murderer because the gun did it.

Good for them but not for us.

Because guns FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT LEOs are BAD!

There.

Fixed it for you.

Good for them but not for us.

Because they're the only ones professional enough and ethical enough to be trusted with them.

They've been trained.

They've gone through background checks.

We should feel content to file innumerable lawsuits for decades, pouring millions of dollars into the coffers of lawyers who chip away at legal Mt. Rushmore-size obstacles with the legal equivalent of a dental pick.

Another reason for not putting them on the market is political - they put a gun on the market and if it gets used in a crime, media would be in a frenzy about the police putting the gun back in the hands of the criminals. Some brass behind a desk is afraid of losing his job over a gun put on the market.
