Officials have netted another 1,500 weapons during New Jersey's fourth gun buyback program and are already looking forward to Atlantic County's gun buyback in less than two weeks.
The state attorney general says 45 illegal weapons were collected in the Monmouth County program this past weekend.
Weapons are exchanged for up to $250 under the no-questions-asked program.
A fifth gun buyback is scheduled at two Atlantic County churches, the Second Baptist Church in Atlantic City and the Faith Baptist Church in Pleasantville on March 22nd and 23rd.
The state has collected 7,000 weapons since December.
