Hmm, and the rest of the guns turned in were all legal, owned by fine upstanding citizens?

I'm sure that the Newburgh police will make every effort to track down the legal owners and return their stolen property.

I wonder how they would react if someone recognized a handgun or long gun and could prove that it was theirs? Like the serial number on a permit and a police report reporting it stolen? I bet they'd give you a line of shit rather then hand the gun over!

Did the police remove the cylinders on those revolvers or were they turned in that way?

one looks to be black powder, and another looks like a "wild west" clone of some kind. Ever try to load those in a hurry?
Yeah.. so much safer having those "off the street" ie: not hanging on someone's mantle.

Pretty sure there are a couple items toward the front of that table that would equal some serious federal time if this buy back had been run by BATFE...

That "Luger" looks more like a Ruger MKI or II to me, the S&W I don't see and hope it's not there!

That won’t make a dent in the crime spike. Bangers have better guns nowadays. That’s them getting rid of older stock to buy better and more powerful guns.
