Who owns a gun here?

[BearCat]

I am a gunowner, but they are only used for sports !

In my gunsafe you will find the following handguns :

Browning Buckmark .22lr pistol
American Arms PK22 .22lr pistol
Walther PP 7,65mm ( .32 ACP ) pistol
Bernadelli P-1 Compact 9mm pistol
Colt King Cobra .357 Mag. revolver
Kongsberg m1914 .45 ACP ( 11,25mm ) pistol

They are all kept in a safe, whenever they are not beeing used or cleaned.
In Norway we are not allowed to carry weapons of any kind,
and the only legal reason to transport my guns, are to/from practice/competition.

As any guns, mine are completely safe and cause no harm.
Gun's dont kill, people do and they do it with any possible means........

Sidenote :

Quote:

18 U.S.C. sec. 921 (a) (31):
The term "large capacity ammunition feeding device"--

A- means a magazine, belt, drum, feed strip, or similar device manufactured after the date of enactment of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994 that has a capacity of, or that can be readily restored or converted to accept, more than 10 rounds of ammunition; but
B- does not include an attached tubular device designed to accept, and capable of operating only with, .22 caliber rimfire ammunition.

This means that in USA, you are able to legally sell/buy/own a hicap mag. manufactured before -94, but if its made after
the 1994 Crime Bill came,
the legal limit of the mag. is limited to 10 rounds. Breaking the gun laws and regulations in the US might be a federal crime,
and the penalty is *hard*. DON'T do it !

Interesting responses so far. It appears that some members (and their friends) own not one gun but a mini arsenal of weapons and there also appears that there are very different ways to store them!

@BC - Maybe I need to get a Colt King Cobra .357 Mag. revolver like you.

Here's a little note:

I like Budweiser which is made by Anheuser-Busch and they also make something called KingCobra which I love! My S&W .357 that I bought just happens to have BUD as part of the serial.

How COOL is that!

I don't have any guns because here in canada, the law is very strict

And in quebec where I live, the law is more agressive than the rest of canada

I don't need guns, they are too much dangerous for me because I have made some terrible action in the past and I don't want to do this again

Peace

I used to own several. A ruger mini-14,colt 45 commander,smith and wesson 357 and a few others. Im definately not anti gun but as I almost went to prison on a gun charge I decided with my temperment I would not own a gun again unless it was absolutely necessary. Also now being clean and sober almost 3 years , I dont seem to be making enemies like I used to. Believe me though when I say I would definately be packing if I thought it necessary to protect my home and family.

I own a Baretta 9mm for the sole purpose of one day having to end my existence. That's the whole truth.

Bear Cat hit it right on the head..

I only own one gun now, a Walther PP 22mm....very valuable and nice gun..

Used to own several, but when my son was bornI got nervous about having alot in the house, so I sold them all...
Used them for Hunting and taget practice, nothing else...

And, I too would NOT hesitate to use it if i felt my life or loved ones life was in IMMINENT danger..

Always legal, always by the book...
