Newport Oregon gun turn-in removes 51 unwanted guns from homes in Lincoln County

Ceasefire Oregon Education Foundation’s latest gun turn-in received 51 unwanted firearms from residents in and around Lincoln County.

The Ceasefire Oregon Education Foundation has sponsored gun turn-ins since 1994. A gun turn-in helps people safely dispose of unwanted guns with no questions asked.

Reasons to turn in a firearm

  • Young, lively, curious children are at your home. Removing the gun removes the risk of unintentional shooting.
  • A family member, friend or neighbor is suffering from depression. Limiting access to guns reduces the risk of suicide.
  • The firearm cannot be properly stored.
  • The gun was left by an earlier occupant of the house.
  • You can’t guarantee that someone else won’t get the gun.
  • You want to do something to reduce the number of gun accidents, suicides, and homicides.
  • You understand that a gun in the home is much more likely to kill or injure a family member or friend than it is to protect you.
  • You would rather have a gift certificate than the gun.
