The haul from a gun buyback event in San Jose included much more than a few handguns. And San Francisco is set to host its own buyback Dec. 9.

    I wondered the same thing when I first read the article. Is it just a tube or does it have a live rocket?

    The amount of ghost guns turned in surprised me.

      If they’re buying 3D printed guns, then they’re just incentivizing people to print guns for cash. I wonder how many of those are nothing but 3D printed toys that cost the owners a couple of dollars to make.

        I was thinking very similar.

        1. Print a replica ghost gun for $n.
        2. Add some ballast to get correct weight.
        3. Sell to SJPD for $100
        4. Profit
        5. Repeat for more profit.
