involved measure success? And whether someone described the guns exactly? YOU know what an SKS is. The SKS seller likely got $200 instead of $100 so bet he was happy someone called it an assault weapon/rifle.

Community fundraising money was used to buy unwanted guns. From the pics, looks like they did OK - SKS, woodmaster, shotguns, a bucketfull of decent handguns - some Rugers, a judge, semis, revolvers, a couple in boxes. A sniper type the PD will use, an AK reportedly.

So we have social gathering and unity, police out in the community, a choir performing, people cheerfully getting gift cards for unwanted items...sure looks like happy people all around.

Sure seems successful enough.
