Here's a pic of my kid and his heater.

Just a gimmic, they couldnt possibly consider that a self defence gun. I really wanna get a derringer too, cant beat that interchangeable 45 and 410 for self defence.
derringers are sweet for a ladies gun
we have a 12 gauge winchester
I can shoot , hunny loves to teach me about the gun
if some nuts are thinking we have money way back here they are gonna get blowed away,
Im instructed to give the perps the weed, yeah right a dinky quarter
bargaining wif criminals/theives isnt good
Before you waste your hard earned $$$$ on a dinky toy pistol, with man sized bullets, you might want to go test fire one first. You may find out(the hard way) that its just not your cuppa tea.... broken hand and/or fingers is just not a lot of fun.Quote:

Put this gun on your keychain and you are likely to shoot yourself in the balls getting it out of your pocket.
About this...
...cars are a good analogy, I think. We don't take away the driving privilege without cause, and I don't think we should ban guns either. But we do register cars so that owners can be held accountable, and we require licenses so that drivers are known to understand the laws and safety rules before they can legally operate a vehicle. Cars can be dangerous if they are operated unsafely, so it makes sense to know a person knows how to drive before you let them out on the road. And if a car is involved in an accident or a crime, it's important to be able to check the registration and know who it belongs to. I don't see anything wrong with doing the same for guns, but you get gun rights folks in an uproar even suggesting it. They always think it's the first step toward taking away their constitutional rights. Wrong. It's about responsibility and accountablility.Quote:

About 17,000 of those killed are suicides. About 12,000 are murders, many of which are famly members or friends killing eachother during an argument with a gun that's in the house. There are about 700 accidental deaths and about 300 shot by police. I couldn't find statistics for the number of crimes that are foiled by using a gun to defend yourself. Does anyone know? I doubt that as many crimes are stopped as there are people killed --- let me know if you find differently. But it seems like if you have a gun in your house, if anyone is killed, the person most likely to be killed is not an intruder --- it's you or someone else shooting themselves, followed by a family member or friend murdering another family member or friend.
A buddy of mine has one of these...here in California. Not the same brand; he said a friend of his brought it back from Australia years back.
Things are pretty damn cool, they sound just like a firecracker going off. Only real use is for shooting beers cans off of the deck, which is fun. :) Lethal? Potentially; at close range, in a specified location.
W/e Ive seen videos of elderly people shooting deringers. And Ive shot several high caliber hand guns INCLUDING a 45 so yeah. They dont make handguns that people cant shoot, at least that men cant anyway.
^ Sexist. ;)
I can handle a gun just like any man. My father is an avid hunter/fishermen and he taught me about guns and gun safety while I was very young.
One of the best things he ever did. He's a NRA member and I'm looking to follow suit.
(btw I'm partial to pump action shot guns, the power with that recoil is amazing)
Guns are just bad in general but I think they should be banned for personal use. Its ok if you do target practice but recreational hunting is bad. The problem is that there is no way of allowing ownership of firearms and controling what people do with them.
It's only ok to use weapons if there is a serious threat posed and only Police should be able to use them.
We need to sort out the bad people in this world first to the point that we all follow the philosophy of not doing anything to anyone else or anything else (ie. animals) that we wouldn't want done to ourselves before we ban guns all together. But obviously this will never happen.
