Taking a gun class next week...

[Beestie]

You did everything but answer the question.

I thought I addressed it in my opening post. Proper use of a firearm is simply a skill we wish to acquire for its own sake. I just don't like not knowing how to use and own one.

I'm not really contemplating buying one. But if the anti gun lobby gets a foothold in a new Administration, I'll be first in line at the gun show. As long as the decision is mine, I'll make it in good time but when and if the gubmint decides to rewrite the 2nd amendment, I will build a cache of them before the ink dries.
