Minneapolis Police Pay $100 for Piece of Wood, Pipe During Gun Buyback

Everyone south of baltrami is cucks

>>31181889
Dude, those buybacks are great.
>bring junk shit gun
>get gift card
>find someone else in line who doesn't want to wait
>offer to give them said giftcard for their gun
>bam profit

It almost worked for me here in Commiefornia, but the fucking assholes ended the buyback before I had gotten my giftcard for my shitty non-working BP revolver from some off the wall brand. Already had a few people lined up who were willing to trade their gun.

You know if we advertise this too much they'll stop buying wood and pipe at these...

My greatgrandfather used to lug me out to these in the early to mid 90's before he died.

He once bought a massive surplus lot of M16 metal trainers (not actual guns, just metal training rifle molds) from a military base. Several hundred of them. We'd take a few to each buyback and especially during the AWB would sometimes get $200 a pop for 'em. He paid mere pennies per unit.

Inert LAW tubes were also popular along with other replicas. Larger PD's (like LA's) like to keep some of these on hand and bring them out at every buyback as if they were just turned in. Look, we recovered a rocket launcher!

But in reality, it's just a legal inert piece of metal that's legal just about everywhere.

how do I make one of these? pretty sure there are buybacks where I live

>>31183789
Full instructions for building one are available in the TM 31-210 improvised munitions handbook published by the Pentagon in the 60s.

It's unclassified public property so there are tons of sites with PDF versions for free.

Make sure it has a stock and the length requirements (both barrel and overall length) are met and it's a perfectly legal shotgun, at least on a federal level. You'll need to check if your state allows homemade guns.

what a bad ass

>>31182729
Why wait in line for the buy back. Every grocery store sells gift cards at the register. Just get some amazon gift cards and go shopping in line.

>>31182867
Nice. The Appleseed Foundation does something similar. They do fundraisers where they accept broken/defunct/nonfunctional firearms and turn them in during the gun drives. Last year they earned $6000 which they then turned right back into teaching youth firearm safety lol.

In one case a shotgun was in such poor condition it ripped in half when the police tried to clear it. They did not accept that one.

Why hasn't there been any riot, unrest or HAPPENING in Atlanta despite it having a very sizable black population. Not even a happening when the KKK did their Stone Mountain rally.

It's a feature on the new 870 express.

>>31184012
I feel like there's gotta be SOME legal bullshit to stop you from doing that. As much fun as undercutting the police sounds....

>>31184453
If they're stolen then you don't get to keep them.

It's a lot more common that most would think.

>putting down the OAL and bbl length on the gun

Police in my area haven't even heard of the NFA, I'd doubt they'd care.

>>31184520
TIL...
If Detroit ever does a buyback I might have to pull some of these shenanigans. Might get lucky and find something cool.

>>31184536
>If Detroit ever does a buyback I might have to pull some of these shenanigans.

I had the same thoughts, thought odds are all the trash from Flint would drive up too and try buying them first so they could reuse them for crimes. Still, it'd be worth showing up just to see what all got turned in.

I wanted to do more but they had a three gun limit. My plan was to aquire all the parts to build an AR using buy back money.

>>31184548
I'd be in it to try to save anything historical, so I don't think I'd be much competition to Tyrone over there trying to get a new Glock 40 Problem Solver Edition without an FFL transfer. Either way, it'd be worth a shot.

Detroit is about as progun as you get in a big "liberal" city.

>>31184565
I remember that thread haha, didn't realize it drew international media attention.

>>31184636
Yeah, "Michigan, we may be a blue state, but if you touch our guns, we'll kill yah."

>>31184636
So incredibly anti-gun, but instead of denying the existence of the right to arms they just claim to acknowledge it while enforcing illegal edicts?

>>31184636
Yeah. The whole scenario is a pretty damn big what-if. I'm honestly okay with that.

Fudds are politically useful when hunting is such a big part of the economy and culture. One of the few things I like about this state.

True. Michiganders know how to go innawoods and thrive, not just survive. Anyone that lives more than 10 minutes from a major city hunts, or at least knows how to. And God knows many actual livable shelters and tree forts everyone made as kids.

There was a fictional book about a modern US civil war with the UN coming in to "pacify" the populace. Not only was it great because 90% of Ohioans were killed by raiders (kek) but Michigan was unofficially renamed "Militiaman" in the book because it was the only free state near the North East that didn't get pacified.

Yup. Detroit police aren't like NY or CA police where they pretend there isn't a racial relation to gun crime, but they know they can't do anything about it. Detroit is so utterly fucked they have PMCs providing armed security in armored humvees in the Business sector because the average Police response is 2 hours thanks to budget cuts and Detroit's bankruptcy.

Holy fuck this is amazing. Has anyone on /k/ tried this? I may wind up an AR receiver just to start cranking these out.

>>31185660
I'm too lazy to dig through the archives for you. Basically there was a buyback coming up in some anons area so he made a bunch of pipe guns out of wood and metal and strapped them together with the intent of getting $100 in gift cards for each one.

To add to the humor of the situation he memed the shit out of them by writing jokes and whatnot on the "buttstocks."

The cops got pissed and I don't recall if they accepted them or not as it was very clear what the guys was doing. Regardless, it was a humorous thread.
