I don’t think the ‘I could get more money selling it elsewhere’ argument applies to gun buybacks. People seem to take advantage of these programmes to dispose of unwanted or broken guns in a safe manner (as opposed to just tossing them in the tip).
While it’s perfectly true that gun enthusiasts could resell the guns for more or refurbish them, that isn’t the motivation (if it were, no one would participate in the buybacks). While it’s also true - I assume -that people could simply hand these guns over to the cops for free, the gift cards are an incentive.
