KEANSBURG — The Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office will be conducting a Firearms Exchange Program here this weekend, officials announced Thursday.

 

 

 

 

The program, more commonly known as "guns for cash," will be held at the Keansburg Police Department on Carr Avenue Friday, Saturday and Sunday between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m., according to officials.

 

 

This program allows people to turn in certain types of unwanted weapons, said officials.

 

 

Individuals will receive $25 for shotguns or rifles, $50 for handguns and $100 for assault weapons, according to officials. Ammunition, replicas, BB guns and pellet guns may be turned in as well, but without compensation, said officials.

 

 

The exchange is anonymous and voluntary and the weapons must be in a gun case or sealed container. Individuals turning the weapons in don't need to have a weapon permit but can only be in possession of the weapon while traveling directly to the police station, according to officials.

 

 

Licensed firearms dealers are not allowed to participate in the program, said officials

 

What would be really cool (therefore would never happen in NJ) would be if they take the guns they've collected and donate them here so that the organization could have more stuff to auction so that the youth shooting (not the same definition as in NJ) programs could get equipment. That would be an outstanding outreach to the shooting community, which is exactly why it would never happen here.

HMMMMM maybe ill take a bunch of COE's with me and offer 50 per rifle / shotgun and 125 per "assault weapon" hmmmmm

Probably wouldnt fly. Its not like people will be waiting in line for this and you could discretely approach them....if only.....

They would be easy spot carrying their weapons in a BOX...

I feel safer already.

Are they offering any money for the weights ?

Damn.. I've been meaning to turn in my 5.7 for fifty bucks

I'll go to 75.

$25 for shotguns or rifles, $50 for handguns and $100 for assault weapons

 

Take your POS shotgun and cut the barrel to 12". Instant $75 extra.

Nice plan. I like it.

I dont get why people think that bad guys would actually turn in guns for that low of a price when he could make at least two to three times that by selling them instead. Though now that I think if you offered more mony than bad guys would probably just steal guns and turn them in giving the bad guys money and basicly a get out of jail free card

They had 6 guns turned in.

I tend to believe that, especialy coming from a woman.. I could not pass that up..

did they give that kid who turned that broken, rusted .22 into his guidance counselor that 25 bucks? or did they give him a juvenile jail sentence?

 

I forget, they don't punish people for doing the right thing these days do they?
