DOVER, Del. (AP) -- Delaware's state Senate has approved a one-year program to give $100 to any person who gives up a gun.
Senate lawmakers approved the pilot "gun buyback" program on Thursday. Lawmakers set aside $100,000 for the program, which allows law enforcement agencies to buy back 1,000 guns. The bill now goes to the House of Representatives.

Well now , this crap has never worked. This is a good incentive for criminals to rob homes or places and get money for guns.
I think it was D.C. that they did this .
What's the point other than the top of their heads.
Our government at work.
This is a stupid program.Don't you know a decent hand gun cost $400.00 or $500.00. This will just cause more crime. Crack heads trying to steal guns to get a hundred dollars to buy crack.Yeah great idea. NOT.
"Don't you know a decent hand gun cost $400.00 or $500.00."
Yeah, new, but nobody is going to give you that on the used market. Still, most guns would be worth more than 100 dollars if you sold them at a pawn shop or gun store. So I don't see the advantage of this plan.
:o)
Hitler did the same thing but the SS collected them; OBAMA at your door step.
There are two problems with this buy-back. One is that people can get junk guns and sell them to the state for a profit. And second, someone not knowing could be selling an historically significant firearm for next to nothing and it gets melted downn or dumped in the ocean.
$100? !! ?? I'll double it.
