    “It was something we had to try to stop,” he said. Carter added he opted against a gun buyback program, as more often than not, elderly citizens hand in their firearms for cash for food and supplies."

    “The people we want to get the guns from, they never bring their guns in,” he said.

    Some rare honesty there.

    Note the way the sling on the AR is blocking view if the magazine well. That was probably was done intentionally to prevent people from knowing that it is a .22 Cal and not a 5.56. The magazine next to it is .22.cal.

    In the year just passed 2018, Harrisburg P.D. took 198 firearms off the street. How many of those cases were prosecuted for crimes and weapon violations?. How many actually went to jail for gun crimes? Inquiring

    A top break pistol will kill you just as dead as Glock fully semi automatic machine gun assault rifle pistol. It's all a matter of who has that firearm in their hands. Some people can go their entire life and not think of ever killing another person and others think nothing of killing another person.

    Zooming in your right it is a 22lr. Look at mag release and the rest of the lower.

    sling is to cover the serial # because they don't know you can flip it over and photograph the other side?
