There was another buyback about six months ago in Atlanta. I took some screencaps from the news story.

The vast majority of guns, both in the hands of people waiting in line and on the tables, were innocuous stuff:
  • black powder pistols and rifles
  • old Biden Special shotguns
  • old pump and bolt-action rimfire rifles
  • cheap .22 revolvers
  • numerous pellet guns
  • several guns I couldn't identify, many of which looked like toy guns and incompetent replicas

I saw one Ruger P-series, and that was the most modern thing I could see turned in.

A $50 gift certificate would represent a profit given the wares I saw.
