More than 100 handguns, long rifles, shotguns, automatic rifles, pellet and BB guns that Multnomah County deputies confiscated in drug busts, accepted at gun turn-in events or found abandoned will be melted and destroyed at an Oregon facility, under a proposal before the Multnomah County Board of Commissioners on Thursday.
The list also includes firearms that were stolen and that the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office recovered but that couldn’t be returned to lawful owners who couldn’t be located, according to an agenda request submitted by the sheriff’s office.
