Citizens of Orange County will have three locations where they could turn in their unwanted guns tomorrow, Thursday, August 22, from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., with no questions asked.
Now into its 15th year, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office is partnering with Crimeline and Real Radio, to host the Kicks 4 Guns event. Participants will receive a $50.00 Wal-Mart Gift Card for turning in a real firearm. There are no questions asked and no ID required.
Gun collection will take place at three locations:
- Central Florida Fairgrounds located at 4603 West Colonial Drive
- John Bridges Center located at 445 West 13th Street, Apopka
- Carl Black Chevy located at 11500 East Colonial Drive
Citizens who want to turn in firearms are asked to place the unloaded weapon inside a plastic bag. An OCSO deputy will remove the gun from the vehicle.
Last year, Kicks 4 Guns took in 1,333 guns; 36 were illegal. Orange County took in 66 guns; 4 were illegal.
The Orlando Police Department location for the Kick 4 Guns event is at the Dr. J.R. Smith Center, 1723 Bruton Blvd, Orlando, FL 32805.
