TUCSON — Tucson police say the final tally on guns turned in at a buyback event was 206.
Those turning in the guns for destruction received $50 gift cards. Many of the weapons turned in were old and some didn't work.
The event organized by City Councilman Steve Kozachik was held in a police station parking lot on Tuesday, the second anniversary of the Tucson shooting that wounded Gabrielle Giffords.
Police say the serial number on one gun was obliterated and that it was set aside for further investigation.

The Jews lined up nice & orderly to board the trains taking them to the death camps. The Nazis even paid their travel expenses.
Gun control is not about guns, it's about control. Liberals are congenital traitors to what America is and stands for.

The politics of Tucson are a little strange. They're a little too left there. Could it be californication?

This wasted over $10,000 of my tax dollars for a publicity stunt to remove rusted and decrepid guns from grandmothers' attics. These kinds of actions are the forerunner to more bold laws that will keep law abiding citizens from owning weapons, yet the criminals will stay armed.
Do they actually think a criminal will bring in his AK-47 to get a $50 dollar gift card for his groceries? Pathetic, you are all pathetic. Tucson is a miserable extension of sh it as$ California.
