Faith Community Calls Upon Kansas City To Surrender Firearms

Gun take back programs aren't new to the metro but this one seems a bit more inspired and offers locals guidance if they give up their weapon . . . Here's a glimpse at the effort . . . 

The process to donate an unwanted firearm is anonymous. Guns to Garden policy decommissions guns according to Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives agency standards.

Members of the media and law enforcement are not allowed during the surrender event.

Those who want to surrender a weapon will drive into the rear parking lot of Central Presbyterian Church.

They will be greeted by volunteers, and once staff is ready to dismember the weapon, a trained firearms expert will break down the surrendered gun and make sure it isn't loaded.

Staff stationed with power tools will then cut the weapon into pieces so it can no longer be used.

Those surrendering weapons will have the option to participate in prayer or counseling from trained volunteers.
