What's the Proper Way to Dispose of BB Gun?

[JayKay]

Cleaning out a relatives garage and came across an old BB gun. It's a Crossman pump rifle, but the air leaks right out and the barrel is rusted. How should I dispose of it?

Trashcan?...

Trash

NAW - Recycle

You should turn it over to the police, just bring it to them at the station.







DO NOT DO THAT, BUY A TRASHCAN.

bend it and stuff in the trash

 

[andimthejr]

BLEND IT

Hold onto it til Kip does another gun buyback and get yourself a gas card

Hmmmm........5lbs of tannerite ought to do it.

Speaking of BB Guns. Were at the pond right now shooting.

PM sent. I'd love to take it as a project to restore/tinker with.

Sell it the next gun buyout in New Orleans. Maybe those idiots will buy it.

Ahh can't wait until mine's old enough. Cool pic!

Thanks for the input guys!! I was bit concerned with just putting in the trash. Looks like Nail Gun wants to tinker with it, so hopefully we can connect.

The suggestions to bring it to a New Orleans gun buy-back hit my funny bone!!

Boy am I glad JayKay DID NOT listen to y'all! Turns out it's a 3rd-variant Crosman 760 Powermaster. It's a predecessor of the piece-o-crap 760 Pumpmaster's you get @ Walmart for $35. Unlike today's garbage, this has a wood forearm, VERY dense plastic (yes, plastic???) buttstock, metal receiver, brass bolt, metal trigger, fully adjustable rear sight, etc. I would gladly pay $100+ for a pumper of this build and quality while refusing to pay $35 for today's Chinese, plastic garbage. Unfortunately there's a shortage of consumers who feel the way I do. Combined with this rifle's personal history I am thankful it was saved from the landfill.

I think I'm on track to having the valve rebuilt while having a few other issues cleared up shortly. Hopefully I can do her and JayKay proud!

I'm glad it was saved from a landfill too!! (It was close.) Hopefully it ends up being worth your time and effort. Good luck and it was good to meet you!!

For those of you who watch "A Christmas Story" every year - "Be careful, you'll put your eye out"

Been there, I think I went through half a dozen red riders.

I'm glad this classic has a chance at a second life,but I would have definitely brought it down to N.O. for the buy back. Get some of those Tax Dollars back
