How much does a gun cost?

Do you need a licence to own one?

Do you have to keep them in a secure location in the house?

Are you allowed to have one in your car?

Can y'all carry guns around all day like Yosemite Sam?

I hate that my state makes you apply for a license. Someone did a freedom of information request to release all the gun owners names. What would this achieve? A shopping list for thieves. Thank god my card was expired, but the attorney general blocked it for now anyway.

thats what i had in mind when i said "americans"

If you have a concealed carry permit then yes . again all states are different . I heard in arizona , no one needs a permit anymore and anyone who can legaly own a gun can openly carry one .

nom cos its true.

never understood the appeal of guns myself! scare the **** outta me. 2 times ive had a gun put in my face and theyre not even legal in this country FFS!

Yeah , that would suck . But if they used a knife would you have the same feelings about knives ? ( not starting a debate I promise , just curious what you think )

shooting is alot of fun and competitive amongst friends . That and for home defense . Those are my reasons for owning guns . i live out in the country and work nights , so the wife wanted a gun . Also , shooting is a family tradition of mine . My grandpa taught me gun safety and how to shoot and my dad has taught my son the same things . I guess for us at least it's more of a family activity .

I don't want to get into a discussion about the pros and cons of guns and gun laws, but I do find it interesting that the question was about carrying guns like this ...



... and the answers were about concealed carry laws ... more like this ...

i hate knives too (been stabbed once but only in the hand) but theyre not as bad because atleast you have a chance vs a knife

I dont intend to get into the pros and cons either . I was just sayin why I personally have em . This isnt the spot for a gun debate .

What kinda gun is that tiny thing . I want one . kinda reminds me of this . I want one of theese too .

Wow , you hang out in some rough spots lol . I see your point . I guess to each their own

AWKWARRRDDDDD!!!

but 4 real...I am more anti-gun then most ppl but this is a pretty ******ed statement.

well ur the expert when it comes to ******ed statements so i guess u must be right lol

Hello sir...I demand the till from your cash register and if you refuse I challenge you to a throwdown in fisticuffs

I'm just intrigued (as the lads say - this probably isn't a good place to debate the pros and cons) because gun ownership is just so alien to me. We're more into the ol' fertilizer truck bombs over here - I jk.

I have to say that I wouldn't mind having a go off shooting one and just knowing what it felt like to play Russian roulette... I mean... something completely not mad.

Jees - just debate the pros and cons guize!

Good for when you get bored of playing Halo.

People with guns usually win them debates though because they end point it at your face the violent nutters.

How about if everyone had the right to carry a concealed thermo-nuclear device?

It's called my DICK. Ehhhhhh yooo

is that you admitting to having teh herp?

fiancée obv is spending all of her free time looking up wedding stuff on the internet.. and she sends me stuff that is either awful or cool...... today she sends me probably the most awesomest wedding cake ever...

I believe sharks dick soup is a delicacy in many countries - you should keep that hidden fella.

Nice guns. I would own one but regulations are very strict here for firearms. We have to go through education program, plus permits, plus extra permits+education if it's a non hunting/work. You also have to fork out the cash for both not to mention paying for permit/registration renewal. I think it's better than in UK though since I don't even think they have recourse to own them.

Before the gun registry my father owned a 12 gauge mossberg shotgun. My mom was really against firearms so she used to hide it all the time. He would always eventually find it except once she hide it and couldn't remember where it was. We finally found it a couple of years later rusted to the basement wall behind the furnace

That's pretty much the best anti-gun argument though. I know Americans can't see it but they have a collective logic malfunction when it comes to gun ownership.

And of course the LC/NC thread is suitable for an inflammatory debate. That's why it is here.

AE and JJ are among the misinformed I feel. Responsible gun owners NEVER point a gun at anyone, loaded or unloaded, EVER. We are there to Protect the people from the violent nuts that think they are some badass mofos when they are armed.
The people are much safer when we are allowed to legally own guns, because if they are regulated, criminals will get them anyway. At least giving the people an option gives us a chance.

Awesome cake ice.
