I might have a beater around somewhere that I'd let go for $200.

$100 for a shotgun.

Every time I hear about one of these I have visions of someone turning in Grandpa's old Parker.

This is interesting:

Collected Firearms

•             All firearms will be checked to see if they are stolen or have been used in any crimes. If the weapon is not stolen or used in a crime, it will be properly destroyed by the Everett Police Department. If the weapon is stolen or determined to have been used in the commission of a crime, the firearm will be impounded as evidence and not destroyed unless and until its evidentiary value has dissipated. Participants who submit a firearm that is determined to be stolen or related to criminal activity may be properly investigated for their roll in any criminal activity related to the firearm.

•             Firearms with significant historical value may be converted to department property for display purposes only.   


Doesn't say they attempt to return stolens to rightful owners; don't know if that's typical for these?

I like the part where if they're worth enough they will keep them.

I just want to sit out front of the drop off location and offer more money for certain firearms.  Basically....run them by me before getting taken advantage of by the government.

I seem to recall there was a guy that would do the 80% receivers for these buybacks.  He had the molds for glocks and would just pour in epoxy.  He also would 3D print AR lowers.  Anyone remember that?

I don't remember that but apparently the "staff" does:

Ghost guns/ Privately made firearms (PMF)

•             Ghost guns and PMFs are limited to one gun per resident. See the description above for more information on ghost guns. Ghost guns that are fully assembled will be paid out as their classification of a rifle or handgun. 

•             We will not be accepting any guns made with parts commonly found at home improvement stores (gas pipe barrels, mouse trap hammers, etc). We will not be accepting 3D-printed guns except where the lower receiver is the only 3d printed part and the rest of the gun appears to be fully functional and safe to fire. Discretion as to the legitimacy of the Ghost Gun will be given to the firearms staff at the event.

Event staff have sole discretion about any and all firearms submitted, including determinations as to what constitutes a firearm, the amount of gift cards given in exchange for firearms, and who may participate.  Any attempts to “game” the system will be rejected.

I wonder what techniques would be considered un-"properly destroyed"? tic

I wonder how many of what they got?  I also wonder if staff gets a chance to take a couple guns home

Giving them to police officers who don't clean their firearms.

I have a family member who is a LEO. He says a lot of these guns dont get destroyed and end up in a LEO home.
