Trade-In Old Guns & Ammo for Future Action Target Purchases

Trade-In Old Guns & Ammo for Future Action Target Purchases

Action Target

Provo, Utah --(Ammoland.com)- At Action Target, we know the recent economy affects everyone in different ways.

That is why we are finding new and creative ways to help agencies take their used items and turn them into credit toward purchases in the future.

Take for example our recent partnership with Southern Belle Brass. When a department collects their spent brass casings, they contact us and we arrange to have those items picked up and sent to Southern Belle Brass. They then weigh the items and send Action Target a check and the amount is credited to that department’s account allowing them to purchase Portable Steel Targets, Clearing Traps, Portable Runner systems or any other item they may need.

We have now created a new way agencies can reinvest in their firearms programs lessening the money lost to their city, county or department’s general fund.

Action Target Gun and Ammo Trade-in Program

Do the above images look familiar? Most departments and agencies have guns that are no longer in service simply lying around, which is why we have developed a trade-in option that makes those items work for you. We accept any amount of old duty firearms, confiscated guns, class 3 weapons and ammunition.

Action Target Trade-in Program

Here is how it works:

* We offer a parts stripping & destruction program to provide value for agencies unable to trade duty, confiscated and/or surrendered guns
* Use this credit towards any of your range projects or equipment with Action Target or Law Enforcement Targets. No expiration.
