It's a full circle scam for a gang: receive a gun that's guaranteed to not have a registration trail, and sell it back during the next buyback program for gov't cash, while picking up a new one or getting the same one again.
I do wonder if they have the foresight to perform ballistics testing on these guns to determine if they have been involved with a previous homicide. (With this locale I seriously doubt it, but maybe)
I doubt any of them do ... These programs have always seemed pretty sketchy to me. Good place to get rid of long-gone Gramps's rusty Sears 0.22 rifle, though.
