Burns Lake detachment RCMP have collected a number of firearms during B.C.’s gun amnesty month.

The amnesty provides an opportunity to reduce the number of firearms in our community, enhancing public and police officer safety.

Unwanted weapons are a potential hazard. If not properly secured, they could be used by children, for example, leading to devastating consequences.

The province-wide gun amnesty ran from June 1st to June 30th, 2013.

If you would like to surrender unwanted firearms, weapons or ammunition, call (250) 692-7171 and request an officer attend your residence to pick them up. Do not bring them to the detachment.
