Why can't people do 10 minutes of research before they trade a firearm for a $50 dollar giftcard?

That's criminal. Every part of it. Giving $50 for it. Destroying the history. That angers me.

What kinda of stupid idiot, My God that is a SIN!

i would have paid them double! in cash!

They didn't destroy it. They gave the lady "permission" to sell it. If you watch the video at the link, sorry the embed didn't work, they don't seem to have a problem destroying a M14 and a M16.

 

[Joker82]

I saw it, im glad they realized the importance and history behind it and let her keep it to sell. Now hopefully it will go into some good hands.

that thing has historic value and family value, why did she trade it in? are people that brain washed?

Yes, they are brainwashed. Unfortunately that lady's parents or grandparents didn't help counteract the constant drumming that guns are evil that everyone has received for the past 30 years.
