[Annie Oakley]

Awww, come on....Pami is a sweetheart and would never mistreat anyone. She seems to just be misunderstood.

[Annie Oakley]

Somehow, Lars, I knew this would be your reaction!

 

[Pami]

Husbands are exempt from my sweetheartness and are subject to mistreatment daily.

 

[Annie Oakley]

Husbands are exempt and should just expect that. They earn it most of the time.

1) To protect my self and loved ones.
2) The 2nd ammendment protects that right. I also believe that one way to LOSE our rights is to become complacent about them. I own guns because I have a right to.
3) It is very difficult to compete in U.S.P.S.A. sanctioned matches without one.

 

[g00n24]

1. Protection (self, loved ones, home...)
2. Sporting (competition, and shooting for fun...)
3. Obama doesn't want me to have guns

1 Because several years ago some idiot on 332 west of Muncie decided to try playing chicken with me. He was driving a new trans am. Me, my 500.00 s10. So I didn't let him run me off of the road. just kept going at the same speed. Turns out he didn't want to ding up his new car any more than I thought he would. He had a fit... stopped in front of me on the entrance ramp to I69, and thought I should exit my truck and fight him. I have a sneaking suspicion he was using a mind altering substance. I just went around and went on my way. Later it occured to me that the possibility really existed that some idiot or nut really could kill me and deprive my family of their dad/husband. That wasnt' acceptable, so I got a carry permit, and the rest is history.

2 Love to hunt and target shoot.

3 Just really like guns.

[gunnerkc]

To protect my family. To fight in case of a national emergency. Because I enjoy continually taking apart my guns and putting them together. I also find the workings of guns very interesting. Guns are also a source of entertainment ie. competition shooting.

I was blessed to be born in a country who's founders bravely provided a constitution to protect it's citizens God given rights. The right to arm themselves being only one of them.

John Moses Browning and men of lesser genius have created an array of firearms to meet the needs and wants of a free and self reliant people. And I have many wants I assure you. Some of which I can convince myself and more importantly my wife are needs.

When I shoot my dad's old .22 with my grandchildren. It is a true and real time machine. My grandchildren share a split second in time with a man they never knew. This is the magic of old guns. And the satisfaction of a good shot is the best of those shared moments. But the safe use and respect for the firearm is the real lesson and legacy. And it passes through the generations in the guise of an old beat up 22 rifle.

1. Protection
