“MSCHF knows that buyback programs work, but not as well as they ought to. Bigger and better incentives are necessary when encouraging gun owners to surrender their weapons. Enter Guns 2 Swords. "If Americans demand the right to bear arms, perhaps a cooler-looking and less destructive arm is our answer," the Guns 2 Swords manifesto explains. "Guns are only quasi-phallic, but swords go all the way. Let's remove some ambiguity.” Any guns sent in through the Guns 2 Swords program will be melted down and reforged into honest-to-goodness metal swords, leather-wrapped hilt, and all. The make and model of the source weapon are debossed on each sword's blade right above the guard for a personal touch.” - Highsnobiety
