Police departments across B.C. will hold a gun amnesty in June to prevent firearms them from falling into the wrong hands.  

If you have a firearm or ammo you'd like to get rid of, just call your local police detachment and they'll swing by to pick them up.

A similar amnesty in 2006 saw more than 3,200 guns turned over, including a machine gun and rocket launcher.

The amnesty will not apply to weapons that were used for a criminal purpose.

    Cash For Guns

    Silvercore will pay cash for suitable firearms. Help promote public safety during the provincial government firearms amnesty by bringing your unwanted firearms to Canada’s largest federally certified firearms training institute. Firearms donated or sold to Silvercore will be used to promote public safety through the federal firearms safety course and the provincial hunter education course.

    Drop them off or we will pick them up.
