The Hood River Police Department will hold a “gun take back” day on Saturday to give local residents a chance to turn in unwanted firearms and ammunition.  People are asked to bring firearms they are turning over in a sealed plastic bag, and then covered in something that can’t be seen through, like a paper bag.  The gun must also be unloaded.  A property receipt will be issued to the owner, and all guns will be held for 90 days before disposal, so owners will have the right to retrieve the firearm during that time if they choose.  The gun take back event will be Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Hood River Police Department on 207 Second Street.
