Albuquerque saw a successful buyback effort which took hundreds of guns off the street. It may not be a big part of a total solution to the gun epidemic, but it seems very likely that some lives were saved.
I'm wondering if such a strategy might be adopted on an international level, substituting weapons buybacks for the usual forms of economic aid. It seems like it would be particularly appropriate to require the arms manufacturers to put up the money.
