FROM CENTRAL
ALABAMA CRIMESTOPPERS
On Saturday, June 29, 2024, starting at 10:00 a.m. Central Alabama CrimeStoppers, in conjunction with the City of Montgomery, and the Montgomery Police Department, will be hosting an anonymous Gun Buyback event at the Bryant Missionary Baptist Church, located at 3645 Norman Bridge Road in Montgomery, AL. Citizens who surrender guns at this event will receive CASH in the amount of $50 for any rifle or shotgun, $100 for any functioning handgun, and $200 for an assault and/or semi-auto rifle.
The purpose of the Gun Buyback event is to provide a safe and anonymous way for community members to turn in firearms they no longer need or want. In past events, many of the participants were widows who were left numerous guns by their loved one, single adults who were given a gun by their parents and were never taught the proper way to use a firearm, or parents who didn’t want a gun falling into the hands of their child, and the list goes on and on.
By participating in this event, you are helping to keep our communities safer by reducing the number of unused guns in circulation. We encourage all residents to consider taking advantage of this opportunity to make a positive impact in our community.
If you provide a valuable resource or service to the community such as summer programs, mentoring, or counseling, and you would like to setup a table during one of our Gun Buyback events please contact CrimeStoppers by calling 334-215-7867 or sending an email to [email protected]
To those planning to attend, please remember to transport your firearms unloaded and in the trunk of your vehicle. All guns will be accepted, no questions asked, in exchange for cash ranging from $50 to $200.
