    Western Australia's $64 million voluntary gun buyback scheme begins

    Western Australia's $64.3 million gun buyback scheme has come into
    effect, with one owner arriving at a Perth police station at 4am to
    hand in his weapons.

    The voluntary scheme, which was announced by the government last week,
    will see tens of thousands of "unnecessary" firearms taken off the
    streets.

    Residents are being encouraged to sell their licensed revolvers to the government for up to $1000
