Ich glaube einige haben Waffen und Zubehör im Wert von mehrern tausend oder vielleicht sogar zehntausend Euro. Alleine der finanzielle Schaden für den einzelnen wäre eine absolute Katastrophe.
Ein Waffenrückkaufprogramm ist sowieso ein Schaden für alle!
Für Waffenbesitzer ein doppelter Schaden!
Zahlt ja der Steuerzahler mit seiner Arbeit!
Den britischen Steuerzahler hat es damals ca. 150Mio Pfund (200Mio Dollar) gekostet.
Damals wurden nur ~162000 Waffen und 700 Tonnen Munition eingesammelt.
Inflationsbereinigt wären das heute ca. 300Mio Pfund!

Compensation
After the ban on handguns, the government established a £150 million (approximately US$200 million) program to compensate handgun owners for firearms that they handed in to police stations during an amnesty period that ran from July 1997 through February 1998. Handgun owners were able to opt for one of three levels of compensation:
1.A flat rate for individual items;
2.Payment at a rate published for individual items;
3.Payment provided in accordance with an independent valuation. This typically occurred where a firearm had been adapted and its value increased beyond the listed price.[32]
This compensation program was criticized by some who considered that companies were not typically compensated for any losses they faced or incurred as a result of legislative changes.[33]
The amnesty and buyback program led to the surrender of 162,000 weapons and 700 tons of ammunition.[34]

In Australien waren es damals ~304Mio$ für 640000 Waffen.
Jetzt nach 20 Jahren wären das inflationsbereinigt in etwa 490Mio$.

7. The gun buy-back scheme started in most States
on 1 October 1996 and ended on 30 September 1997. It
secured the surrender of about 640 000 prohibited
firearms nationwide. The Commonwealth funded the
scheme through a one-off 0.2 per cent increase in the
Medicare levy to raise about $500 million. The total
cost of compensation to owners was about $304
million.
