If I'm remembering right, Australia did a gun buyback program and saw a fairly sharp reduction in gun suicides and homicides. Might not work as well in the states, but it certainly seems worth considering at least.


Gun buyback programs have been tried tons of times in the US. Nobody is interested. It doesn't help that the government is stupid and usually offers well below the market price. There have been some hilarious instances of gun dealers setting up a booth across the street from the buyback and offering double the price the government was (which was still less than the market price for the guns).
