    Do you own a gun?

    It's illegle to own a gun in the UK but not in the US. I was wondering how many of you actually own a gun and what you use it for? e.g - killing your boss

    I'm especially interested in those who own explosives like grenades and rocket launchers.

    I have a MIG in my backyard.

    I also have an RPG launcher, and a bit of C-4.



    Guns, however, are not allowed where I live (Holland).

    Yes, I have a couple of guns...
    1. Glock 23 .40 cal.
    2. Colt AR-15
    3. Remington 700 (identical to the SWAT sniper rifle)
    4. A 12 gauge shotgun for shooting skeet

    Most of my friends are law enforcement...either city cops or county deputies...one is a sniper for the Platte County SWAT team in Kansas City.

    What do we do with them??? um....shoot them? and try not to shoot each other!

    Well, they couldn't get their hands on one so easily, so the 'average fool' would be prevented from shooting people.

    Laws are like padlocks. They only stop honest people.

    I have 2 air rifles, lots of knives and the USS Nimitz on my mantlepiece (needed reinforcing).
    I don't live here any more.

    In the USA we have more guns then people!
    I think a few Middle East countries do also, but their guns are AK-47 used to kill humans!

    Ruger 10-22 .22 cal rifle
    Moosberg 500atp 12 gauge sg
    Norinco M 90 (Chinese version of the AK47)
    A couple other assorted shotguns
    @ 10 - 15 handguns ranging from 22's to 357 magnum. Most of these are tiny pocket pistols, 3 of them are larger full sized handguns.
    We just got conceal and carry law passed in Missouri, I was really looking forward to it, but now I don't think I'll get a license. If I had a gun on me everywhere I went, I think I would be in trouble in less than a week. Screw that.

    It does not matter how you take game or fish! Do not waste it! That does all so mean your car! Deer are hit by cars all the time. Here they mostly go to soup kitchen and orphan homes!

    Hunting here is about the only way to control their number with all the predators gone now!

    Duck = Flying liver! Uggh!

    Roadkill is best after it has been allowed to season for a few days!

    Guns are for wimps! I hunt deer with my bare hands! Good thing there are supermarkets, or else I would have starved by now
