It's not a gun "buy back". It's a gun grab. I support any measure to get illegal guns off the street. However, it's sad that they also target legally owned firearms by law abiding gun owners by calling this a gun "buy back". They aren't offering anything remotely close to fair market value. They are hoping that there are people in a bind willing to part with their guns just to put a few bucks in their pocket. I would suggest if you are a legal gun owner and looking to sell your guns, that you instead go to a FFL dealer and sell your guns there. You'll get more money, and support a local business at the same time.

I strongly support this gun buy back. I hope it takes a huge number of illegal weapons off the street.
