Pensacola gun buyback this weekend.

[ssuajk]

I’ll be there in the morning. It does stink and I’d rather sell to members here first.
my 3 .22 carbines all work and my crusty Springfield 20 ga is a shell saver compared to my auto loader lol. Might save the 22 six shooter and 1968 SKB model 500 with a bulge...who knows someone may have a barrel set or create a coach gun. I’ll report on tomorrow’s gaggle
PS I got a Remington 597 .17 hmr semi to unload too.

Before anyone drives much $10,000 won't buy many guns at $150 a pop and at $200 with 50 guns it's done.

And thats great! When P'Cola quits buying, other "Buyers" may get better deals as people keep arriving. Win/Win.

Somebody please take some pics. I really wanted to be there but driving to Crestview for a 1911 with my kids in tow this morning. Oh the irony.

I can see it now. Few people there. Ignoring buyers. 10-11am the line gets longer, and people don't want to wait and pawn off on the side.
Who is going to buy or hang out? We need a play by play. Haha.

Lines aren’t bad, one man upset he couldn’t get 200 a piece for four stripped lowers, shotties are $125. The semi-22’s were $200 a piece. I kept my pistol, o/u and .17 hmr

 

[stage20]

They gave you 200 for semi auto 22s?

 

[B0YD0N]

They gave you 200 for semi auto 22s?

I believe that's his asking price for his rifles

 

[MadMac22]

They have already closed and run out of money
Out of money 35 minutes after they opened.

That there looks like the leading criminal element in Pensacola !
(Gang Members)
I will sleep better tonight knowing they have been disarmed .

80% looked over 65 years. Saw a few old single shot shotties, 22 and 25 pistols..I did see one .45. The older marine behind also dumped a .22 semi rifle and a black powder revolver in rough shape.
one station checked for clear weapons and then you move forward to payment window(cash).
To be honest it said operable weapons but I don’t think they cared much about that.

 

[ssuajk]

Yes sir...$200 each

 

[M60Gunner]

Wow just wow. Thanks for the pics and reports!!

 

[Murfpcola]

Apparently pellet guns too

 

[PaulT]

I was there.

COMPLETE WASTE OF TAXPAYERS MONEY.

But then again thats what Professional PARASITES...aka Politicians do best

 

[ssuajk]

I think some of the elder people didn’t know what they had but hey maybe grandma’s a dead shot. The police checking for cleared weapons most likely rejected that pellet gun. However the young cop at the payment window asked me if my old 20 ga single shot was semi or bolt...???

 

[wildrider666]

Just wait for the glowing report about the "buyback" in the local news,.Maybe the mayor and city council slapping themselves on the back while reciting the montra "If it saves one child, its worth it".

Any private purchase yet?

 

[ssuajk]

I was glad to see no camera/reporters there. I did see one man filming on his phone...maybe a tik tok, fb or tweet thing...dunno cause I don’t use them. Also saw one man show up with a poster board offering fair market value for weapons. I was already at pay window.
Due to the wreck on Escambia bridge I barely made the 90 exit and came around the bay(hadn’t done that since Ivan).

Look like extras from the movie 'Cacoon" showed up...

They should have called it "Pensacola's junk emporium"! That's all they got was somebody else's junk. The bad guy's know they can get better prices on the black market (street).
