Guns

What do you pack or keep on your night stand. Are you a sportsman or just targets. Or are you completely against them?

I don't currently own any guns and probably never will again. I just don't see them as necessary.

Like Vanessa, though, my son has a TON of airsoft guns. Of course, they are with him, presently, in Alabama, but when he visits he always has one or more with him.
Also, when/if he moves back to my home, I'm sure they'll be in his collection of personal items.

My son's home situation is actually troublesome to me, as there are more than airsoft guns readily available to anyone who wants them, at anytime.; ▶ Reply to This

I have no intention on shooting someone who just tries to break in. For now, they can be dealt with on other, less deadly ways.; ▶ Reply to This

I passed the test and I am certified. I even took target practice. I jumped 10 ft. every time a shot was fired, but eventually I settled in. My target had 90% shots in the zone (I am so competitive)! My first target is posted in the window next to my front door.

My point is, and a scary one at that, is the store normally carries 100's of hand guns and firearms. They only had three revolvers! The store was mostly empty of firearms. I talked to the manager and he said," orders are 3-6 mos back logged"! AMERICA IS ARMING ITSELF!!!

I am a product of the 60's, peace and love, I would never arm myself. Now, I am not so sure ;-(; ▶ Reply to This

Now, at this age, if someone breaks in, I'll just quickly undress and that will scare the (you know what) out of them! lol; ▶ Reply to This
