Determining the price of a firearm for retiring deputy


 

How does the county determine the price of a firearm when a retiring deputy wants to purchase it?




Under Government Code §614.054, a qualified individual under §614.051 must purchase a firearm before the second anniversary of the date of the person’s retirement. Government Code §614.053 provides that a governmental entity shall establish the amount. The amount may not exceed the fair market value of the firearm.
