    It is not a buy back. They didn't own them in the first place!

    Politicians who fear the people seek to disarm them.

    People who fear their government's intentions refuse to be disarmed.

    Who goes to jail over the illegal handgun transfers? The gift card giver or the gift card receiver?

    Does the buyer go through a background check?
    How do they know if the gun is functional or not? Shoot a few in the air?

    Where can I get details on this? I've got an old Ring of Fire .25, and $100 sounds like a good price.
    Does K-Mart sell ammo?

    I don't think they are selling it to you.
