Default Goods for Guns program - Allegheny County

http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/07347/841492-100.stm

Goods for Guns program set for Saturday
Thursday, December 13, 2007
By Jim McKinnon, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Sometimes, when people participate in the Goods for Guns of Allegheny County Inc.'s annual firearm buy-back program, they turn in weapons that still are loaded.

Situations like this are what the program is designed to combat, the accidental, incidental, or even intentional shootings by usually law abiding citizens, Philip Dacey, a former Pittsburgh police lieutenant and gun expert, said today.

Mr. Dacey is a leader among the all-volunteer Goods for Guns program.

The agency will hold its 14th annual gun buy-back program from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. tomorrow at two sites: the former fire station, now an Emergency Medical Services base, on the Boulevard of the Allies near Smithfield Street, Downtown; and the Homestead Police Department-Municipal Building on East Ninth Avenue.

All weapons to be exchanged must be operable. Only one weapon per person will be accepted.

Other weapons, ammunition or dangerous devices will be accepted for disposal only.

No questions will be asked at either site, organizers said.

A $25 gift certificate will be given for sporting firearms such as rifles or shotguns. A $50 gift certificate is available for handguns. Organizers also will give away gun locks and gun safety literature.

I've had the same idea in the past.

However all the Jennings and Lorcin's aren't worth the $25

Notice a public example of an ILLEGAL transfer of firearms and NO one will be prosecuted again for breaking existing firearm laws.

People that are transferring their firearms are in lots of cases ILLEGALLY transport them.

This is organized by private people and or volunteers that are aiding and breaking existing laws for illegal transferring firearms.

Try it yourself advertise the same thing and double the gift certificates cost and see what would happen to you, yet some people are above the law for a allegedly “good cause”, must have missed that exemption in the law.

Got to love this quote “NO QUESTIONS ASKED”, the hall mark comment of possible illegal activity.

Keep this article in light of all the anti-gun laws that are being proposed.
