I'm glad to see they just didn't give her a $100 gift card and sent her on her way

It's ironic: those very same cops would probably find it their duty to readily make an arrest of you or I for carrying a so called assault rile (a semi-auto legislated into becoming an assault rifle); yet, they save a real assault rifle from destruction, a rifle that had been used by one of the most vile military forces ever on the face of the earth. Don't doubt they would make such an arrest; hell they were already doing their duty by participating in a gun buy back to get those so called assault rifles off the street. Then when they see one they think is special - then it is suddenly okay for them to save it. Amazing.

The man probably strangled a nazi to capture that beauty.

I'm amazed they let her profit from a NAZI killing death machine.

I think this is going to become problematic, at least for anti gunners. People think these buyback programs are regulated and monitored to make sure all the scary guns are properly disposed of. Now we find police "saving" certain firearms. What other guns are going to be "saved"? Who decides?

That's not even the biggest issue of buy backs.

Feel good idea Gun Buy Back, hey anyone bring any gun here this day, no questions asked at all, here's $100 gift card.

Gangbanger with community's Saturday night special uses said burner for drive by or gas station hold up (that went bad or just didnt want anyone to talk after) or planned home invasion.

Well police might have casings and even a slug for ballistics and evidence..

Buy back day, random guy (or girl whatevs) walks up hands over that same gun (aka key evidence in one or maybe even many crimes) no questions asked, could even have SN scratched off, gets handed gift card and a thank you.

Few days later or whenever that gun is now destroyed, key evidence now gone.

^ is that a common issue, probably not, it's more old woman living one dead husband had some old shotgun under the bed she doesnt want it around type situations. But again that can and probably has happened many times before

Just from a pure accounting standpoint. Banger uses it in a crime, doesn't want it in their possession for obvious reasons. Instead of dumping in the river, bring it in for a $100 deposit in your next illegal gun buy.

I’m sure 95% of the buybacks are junk but I’d hate to have to be the guy to watch the other 5% go to the shredder. Doesn’t really make sense that they saved just this one.
