Years of years of productions of weapons, I am sure there are new weapons, guns in general and ammo to replace the old ones, so where does the government take the old weapons.
No we don’t recycle them, I know that.

Like stated earlier, third world countries buy our old weapons because many of these countries can’t even copy our weapons from the 19th Century.
This link, if it’s shaded the color red, they have to rely on technology from the green colored first world countries : http://www.nationsonline.org/oneworld/third_world_countries.htm
Outdated weapons may help a third world wountry fight ANOTHER country form the Third World, but it’s all but useless against a first world country.
Take the unfortunate fate of the submarine that began life in the U.S. Navy as the USS Catfish during WWII. When it was OBSOLETE, it was sold to Argentina and its name was changed to ARA Santa Fe.
The sub was no match for what England had during the Falklands War. It was sunk by the British. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARA_Santa_Fe_%28S-21%29
The USS Phoenix may have survived the Pearl Harbor attack, but when it was sold To Argentina and renamed the ARA General Belgrano, it was sunk by the British during the Falklands War. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARA_General_Belgrano
Some third world countries can’t even copy basic technology. Without foreign input, they go back to the Stone Age: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/3889219.stm

They sell them to 3rd world countries, like Iran and Iraq. And then they start a war against those countries, because, guess what… those countries have weapons that maybe, someday, somehow, remotely possibly, could be used against you.

Yea, you know there’s a leakage problem when your enemy has AK-47s AND M-16s.

They create ‘demand’ for them in poorer countries. And then sell them.

To the highest bidder – regardless of whether that country may later turn out to be a threat (cough Sadam cough)

Well, what you think you know is incorrect, because when a weapon is taken out of service, each is evaluated at depot maintenance and if possible it is rebuilt. If it is unservicable it is then destroyed and and the materials are recycled.
