    Spoofing the Chicago Gun Buy-Back

    This is worth a look - these guys got a bunch of old rusty junk guns, took them to a Chicago gun buy-back, made over $6,000, and used it to run some kid's firearm's training camps. Brilliant. Sorry if this is a dupe but I didn't see it anywhere else.

      Definitely funny.

      There was an FFL here in CA that did something similar and got a couple grand for old junk(forum member actually). Of course using the money to fund firearm training for kids is even more hilarious.

        That's "Troll Hall of Fame" worthy there! I love the use of their buyback program to promote guns!

            Another detective there also gave them some grief. "Hey, next time, get some guns from this century, will ya?"

                          is this why those CA buybacks only give out grocery gift cards?

                            Yes. During the '90s they gave out cash but switched to gift cards after getting trolled.

                            I know of one CA FFL dealer in the '90s that would acquire Jennings J-22/J-25 pistols for $30 a piece and turn them in at gun buy backs for $100 a piece. He stopped when they switched to gift cards.
