I just came across this while looking for something else. Another gun buy-back, this time in Trenton, N.J.
"Trenton Mayor Eric Jackson was surprised at how many rifles and shotguns were boxed up. "I thought there'd be more handguns," he said.
Final tallies will be made public next week, but rifles and shotguns appeared to outnumber handguns in Trenton Friday morning.
The officers collecting the weapons took in some very old guns too, like flintlocks, and other classic, curved-wood pistols."
Looking through the photos I could see an Arisaka and a Carcano from WWII, almost impossible to find ammo for either.
I don't guess Washington and his troops would have turned theirs in after they crossed the river.
