The previous buy-back saw 60 thousand weapons handed in, but police say the new one will be much smaller.
Michael Dowling of the Council of Licenced Firearms Owners says it's been expected -- but some members see it as opportunistic.
He says the firearms affected are not those used in the mosque shootings -- so it's stepped beyond what originally started this.
