CASH WHILE SUPPLIES LAST!

This will be a drive-up-drop-off event. To ensure everyone's safety, guns must be delivered unloaded in a clear plastic bag in the trunk of your car. Ammunition must be delivered in a separate bag. The drop-off person will not be charged with illegal possession of that specific firearm. All guns accepted, but CASH will only be given for working guns.

Help us prevent guns from falling into the wrong hands - such as children, people contemplating suicide, people with dementia, perpetrators of domestic violence, or criminals.
