The idiots paid the guy $500.00 for the rocket launcher. When are they doing it again???  I'll bring a trunk-full of them. You folks do realize that these "rocket launchers" are basically  non-reloadable, disposable tubes, that are used once and thrown away, I can get you piles of them for cheap at the surplus place. anywhere for about $50.00 to $$150.00 depending which one you want.

It's Govt.

Doesn't matter if it's city, state or federal they are all pretty useless.

A town in NYC hosted a buy back for toy guns. Kids bring on toy guns and trade them for different Christmas presents.

Start early turn your kids into liberal snowflakes afraid of those evil killer guns.

Yeah playing cops and robbers is horrible. My kids have a ton of toy guns. Nerf guns are a big hit around here. The fun factor is determined by if it can make someone cry or not. The more cry prone, the more fun.

one of our toy guns growing up was the Japanese rifle my Dad brought back from WWII.  Of course being the engineering type, I just had to take it apart and put it back together again. My Dad said how did you know how to do that? I said I dunno, just did.

My granddaddy was a D.A. in a small Kansas town.  Long gone.  He had a couple small semi-autos, around .380 in size though in obsolete calibers.  Both guns ruined, one with a bulged barrel and the other siezed up from decades of neglect. Both unusable and on my mantel as display heirlooms.  I could turn them into money on these "buyback" fiascos but for 2 things - they were my grandaddy's pieces and I won't support these inane liberal programs.  I also have a dbl barrel outside hammer damascus steel 12 gauge - same story, belonged to my other grandaddy, it's action is so loose and the steel so weak that shooting it would be more injurious to the shooter than the target. So it's a display piece also.
