The city of Houston said its second gun buyback event Saturday morning made history after 1,208 guns were turned into authorities in exchange for a gift card up to $200.
A few hours after the event was over, the mayor's office announced 1,208 guns were turned in on Saturday in exchange for a gift card, which is about 400 more than the 845 collected during Houston's first buyback in July.
A $50 gift card was available for a non-functioning firearm, $100 for a shotgun or hunting rifle, $150 for a revolver or semi-automatic handgun, and $200 for a semi-automatic rifle.
