RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (Reuters) - A Brazilian woman surrendered an arsenal of about 1,300 firearms on Friday under the country's guns-for-money disarmament program that started last week, police said.

A federal police spokeswoman in the city of Sao Paulo said the woman, who will receive $65,600 for the weaponry that ranged from muskets to mortar shells, told police she was the daughter of a late guns collector.

Police transported the guns from her house under heavy escort and would not reveal her identity.

Police across Brazil have received 5,362 weapons since the July 15 start of the government-sponsored campaign to cut firearm ownership in a country with one of the world's highest murder rates.

For every gun that is handed in, be it licensed or illegal, owners get up to $100 and no questions are asked.
