Here is one to make your stomach churn. From a Canadian website, url below.<P>Rather than bothering with getting a Possession Only Licence and registering their firearms some people are simply turning in their guns to the authorities for destruction. Please, remember there are other options!<P>When the firearm is of some historical significance, a museum may be interested in adding it to their collection. If this is the case you should be able to get a tax receipt for a charitable donation.<P><BR>You can sell or give your gun to someone appropriately licenced (i.e., with an FAC or PAL) or to a firearms dealer. The market for used firearms is very depressed at the moment because so many people are selling firearms; hence prices are a fraction of what they were 10 years ago.<P><BR>You can have the firearm deactivated so that it becomes a "non-firearm". Call 1-800-731-4000 and ask for the deactivation guidelines.<P> <A HREF="http://www.firearmstraining.ca/unwanted.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.firearmstraining.ca/unwanted.html</A>

Anyone with an "unwanted firearm" feel free to email me and I'll send you the address of my local FFL holder for shipping to a new home where I will give it love and affection.... [img]images/icons/laugh.gif" border="0[/img]

Same thing happening in Australia. I was talking to the policeman in charge of our local firearms branch, and he said that he'd just had a heavy barrelled Remington 700 handed in. Apparently in excellent condition. Still equipped with scope. This gun was destroyed.....
