Attorney General James’ Office and Camillus Police Department to Host Gun Buyback in Onondaga County on September 17

The Office of New York Attorney General Letitia James is hosting a community gun buyback with the Camillus Police Department on Saturday, September 17, at the Camillus Fire Department Station. This event is part of Attorney General James’ ongoing effort to help protect New York communities from gun violence and keep families safe. The Office of the Attorney General (OAG) accepts — with no questions asked — working and non-working, unloaded firearms in exchange for compensation on site. The OAG provides money in the form of prepaid gift cards when a gun is received and secured by law enforcement officers on site. “Click” on the following link for GunBuyback-Camillus Sept 17th Flyer.

Camillus Fire Department Station
5801 Newport Road, Camillus, NY 13031
Saturday, September 17
10 AM – 1 PM

The OAG will be providing the following amount for firearms turned in on site:

$250 per assault rifle
$150 per handgun
$75 per rifle or shotgun
$25 per non-working, antique, or homemade gun

Up to $150 for 3D-printed handguns that appear to be capable of safely firing multiple rounds without reloading.
$25 to $50 for gun parts (uppers, lowers, auto sears).
Up to $250 for ghost handguns and up to $350 for ghost assault rifles (excluding homemade and 3D-printed ones).

The OAG accepts both working and non-working firearms and there is no limit on the number of firearms an individual can turn in. The guns must be transported to the drop-off site unloaded, in the trunk of the vehicle, in a plastic or paper bag, or box. This is an amnesty program, in which no questions will be asked about the person dropping off the gun. There will also be no unauthorized audio or video recording allowed on site.

This community event is a part of Attorney General James’ statewide efforts to combat gun violence and protect New Yorkers from harm. To date, Attorney General James has helped remove more than 3,300 guns out of New York communities since 2019.
