    I think it's great idea to have one again.

    It might not get many AK47s off the gangs, but it will collect a lot of old shit that people don't want anymore and is worth nothing to sell. Old rusty things in the back of wardrobes or toolsheds.

    My brother handed in a stuffed, side by side shotgun and a .22 with a missing bolt from his in-laws in an amnesty about 20 something years ago. Even I didn't want them.

    Just because there's a 'permanent' amnesty, doesn't mean everybody knows about it. All it costs the Government is a little advertising and gets some unwanted guns out of circulation.

    If dealers, or anybody else with a licence, offer people money for them instead, good on them.
