In anti-gun locales like Los Angeles or New York, it’s not uncommon for police departments to melt down or destroy firearms that are seized or turned in during compensated confiscation events. In more pro-2A jurisdictions, however, you’re far more likely to see agencies auction off seized firearms and put the proceeds back into law enforcement. Policies vary from state to state and even city to city, with Ohio destroying most seized firearms while neighboring Kentucky requires departments to sell seized firearms once they’re no longer needed in criminal investigations or court cases.
