I simply view it as being prepared. I know two different people who have suffered a home invasion. They both owned guns but did not have immediate access when they were needed. One would have been lacking in the firepower to stop the threat even IF he had the opportunity to grab his pistol.

To each his own.

I live in an interesting Los Angeles suburb where we are rife with home invasion robberies when they aren't out hunting you with a crossbow, I shit you not.

A couple years ago they banged on my door (what they do right before they kick it). The other one circled to my patio. I picked up my Mossberg and chambered a round.

They left. If I hadn't had a shotgun what happened next would have been very ugly for all of us. We will not even discuss Sheriff response times.

Most anti gun folks have no clue what so ever outside of what they see in the media. They get sad when they see a senseless shooting. They get outraged when they see a mass shooting committed by a nut case. So their only thought is that is despicable. Then they get on the take all guns away bandwagon and have no idea what the bigger picture is or what it would mean if we as a country were disarmed. And quite frankly they don't care; yet they would be the first ones to cry foul after crime increased in their communities or their civil and personal liberties started to get chipped away at....lol

Isn't suicide and/or domestic violence at the top of the list of annual gun deaths (percentage wise) in the US? Meaning that after you take away those two huge numbers how many gun deaths of random people are there a year? Read somewhere that your chances of being involved in a mass shooting are less than getting stuck by lightening.

yeah, because it doesn't count as a gun death if you shoot yourself or your spouse with a gun.

(I thought later about how that sounded after I posted it.:shock:)

No, I meant people lumping in total gun deaths under the mass shooting category. Not to minimize that it's still loss of life, yes, but the chance of someone being randomly shot is lower once the aforementioned gun death stats were removed.

Unless you're roaming the African bush being pestered by leopards,baboons and lions then you should not own a private gun.
People who use guns as part of there professional equipment go through vigorous gun training and are held accountable for every use of that equipment.
What makes all these everyday average Joes think they deserve the right to end someones life on a wim or a feeling?
Some drunk kid ends up at the wrong house after a party...a common mistake im sure alot of us have made, but make that mistake in some of those batshit crazy states and you will end up with a load of shrapnel in your chest by some half drunk 70yr old who shoots through the door before even checking.

I grew up in gang culture London and even in a country like the UK where guns are banned, the criminals still get hold of them. The difference here being the weapons in criminal hands are normally drilled through replica's done by some 15yr old in workshop class or are 50yr old worn down revolvers which force you to ask the target to open his mouth to acquire a kill shot. As a result we have had maybe 1 school shooting in the last 50years and very few firearm related deaths compared to knife and combat deaths.

Compare that to our friends across the pond and its easy to see there is a massive problem. All the school shootings done by retarded little emo fucks with access to a stockpile of weapons that would leave there call of duty friends envious. The racist motivated mass shooting sprees done with weapons that international criminals could only dream of obtaining, the killings of police officers up and down the country,done with weapons not so different from those the police themselves carry!, not even to mention the amount of firearm related homicides in the states each year.

But I guess as long as they keep justifying this crazy gun-culture with "its our given right" & "I taught my 7yr old gun safety!" bullshit then we should just kick back and let them shoot eachother all while blaming the blacks and mexicans jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja.

I have had one injury from a gun. Broken rib and separated chest cartilage. Happened last year and there is a thread on it. Due to shooting a 3 1/2 inch 12 ga mag on a quick draw. I have an injury that hinders me from seating a gun right handed completely.

I have since went to shooting large bore left handed.

How long did it take for the ribs to heal?

In order to get my lower, they had to log me into the system...sucks. I could always pic up a used one and buff away the #'s. Not necessary yet.

Very illegal to remove numbers.

It is how ever completely legal to build your own fire arm in any state. No numbers are needed. Though it is illegal to transfer such a gun, even after death.

Two ways to have a receiver with no numbers. Buy an 80% receiver or build one from scratch.

I put mine together by purchasing the parts, but they won't ship the lower to a residence. They will only ship it to a licensed firearm dealer(i use local pawn shop)...then I get charged 35 bucks for them to process it and make sure I'm not a felon, etc. Perhaps, I'm misunderstanding what you're saying.

Agreed, I wouldn't ever buff #'s off or anything like that... unless it was absolutely detrimental. But that usually means some serious shenanigans are going on, which I'm smart enough to avoid.

Look up 80% receivers. They are not complete so can be sent to your home.

$35 for the transfer? That's what a stripped lower cost me here at the gun shop.
