New York will hold its first ever statewide community gun buyback next week.
Of the nine locations throughout the state, the closest location for Finger Lakes residents is Saint Lucy’s Food Pantry in Syracuse.
As this is an amnesty program, no questions will be asked about the person dropping the guns off.
The buyback will take place from 10:00a-3:00p on the 29th.
The OAG will be providing the following amount for firearms turned in on site at each event:
- $500 per assault rifle or ghost gun
- $150 per handgun ($500 will be given for the first handgun turned in per person)
- $75 per rifle or shotgun
- $25 per non-working, replica, antique, homemade, or 3D printed gun
