Help reduce the risk of suicide, accidental firearms discharges, domestic violence, and guns getting in the wrong hands.
 
It is a terrible reality that guns continue to proliferate in Marin County and can be used in homicides, crimes, and suicide.  The 2020 Marin County Grand Jury estimated that there are 100,000 firearms in Marin homes and vehicles.  As a community, we want to do all we can to provide the opportunity to remove unwanted guns from our homes.  On Saturday, June 4, 2022, there will be a Gun Buy Back Event which will serve all of Marin County.  It will be held outside the Marin County Sheriff’s parking lot at 1600 Los Gamos, San Rafael from 9AM to 1PM.
 
Gun Buy Back Events work by enabling participants to bring in functional firearms and receive cash in exchange.  Each participant can bring up to 3 functional firearms.  Participants can receive $100 for handguns, rifles, and shotguns and $200 for assault weapons.  Participants can also turn in any boxed ammunition.
 
The City of Sausalito has committed $1,000 to this event.
