2018 Gun Buy Back

Gun Buy Back efforts like the one being planned for the fall of 2018 have taken nearly 2000 guns off the streets of Essex County in the last five years.*  The ECBF's 2018 Bun Buy Back Initiative currently underway is a joint public-private program whereby our Foundation is working to raise the necessary funding to allow local and State law enforcement to execute a full one day "no questions asked" buy back event right here in our community.

As officers of the court, professionals and community leaders, our Board has dedicated itself to making every
effort to support this program through education, awareness and fundraising so that this effort will result in a 
substantial number of guns being taken out of circulation and, hopefully, making our Essex community 
a safe place to live, work and raise our families.

For illegal guns good. Not for mine.

Having recently read about the "fruity ghost" homemade epoxy? lowers, I do wonder if anyone has successfully converted one into money at one of these. I genuinely hope they have, and have been able to make a profit off these bullshit buybacks. Or if $4 worth of parts from home depot is enough to get money, and someone has brought in an armful of homemade liberators and walked out with enough to buy a nice 1911. Hope there are lots gaming the system...

I still want to know  what happened with the firearms that were confiscated......yes, I say CONFISCATED, at the Burlington County circus event a month or so ago.

"No questions asked"?  HA!

there is no such thing as an illegal gun. 

Well in the world we live in NJ there is legal and illegal.

Stafford Twp/Ocean County are doing a gun *TAKE* back:

...

This is not an amnesty program or buy-back event. This is geared toward those who have firearms they wish to dispose of. For instance, they inherited them from a relative and don’t wish to own them anymore.

All firearms must be unloaded when turned in, and in “safe condition.” Background checks on all weapons will be done during processing.

Anyone bringing anything to these buy back things should first give us on the forum a crack at it. Also these buy backs don’t help the (our) cause any. 

I went to one of these maybe 8 or 9 years ago and dropped off a broken, single shot 20 gauge( H&R) and a broken double barrel 12 gauge (Sears and Roebuck) and got more money than if I sold them on here as broken.  I then used the money for a new gun.  Win win

A buddy of mine told me he did this back in the day. Buy a couple of cheap shot guns. Saw the barrel off and cash it in at gun buy back.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
