Vox pop Onion-style
Spotted by the, allegedly, semi-retired Richard Delevan. The announcement of the IRA's final act of decomissioning, perhaps tellingly, merited only a brief mention by the satirical Onion - "I knew that Guns For Guinness trade-in program would work where so many other attempts had failed."

Let's see that would be...

1 bullet= 1 pint
1 fully functional semi-automatic= 6 pack
1 fully functionaly automatic= 12 pack
10lbs explosives (any kind)= 1 case
1 bunker full (1/2 functional, 1/2 non functional)= 1/2 Keg
1 bunker full (fully funtional)= 1 keg

and for every box, bag, or bucket of miscellaneous BS you bring in = 1 ticket. 6 tickets= 1 pint
