Do naval guns count? I am still an Admiral of the Fleet after all.

Do hired guns count as well? I used to command an army.

Nonsense. I would never purposefully harm another person unless in the defence of myself/others/my country.

FN makes good stuff, I wouldn't mind having one of those myself. Although, I still LOVE revolvers. Simple, effective, and reliable. :D

Would you prefer people walking around with katanas? You are a ninja after all. :3

Hey, if everyone had katanas, at least it would be a fair fight.

You don't have much of a chance if someone shoots you from a distance.

I'm not sure, but I heard something about a law of being allowed to carry a sword around aslong as it's in a sheathe and not hidden. I'd check that before you do though...

That's the beauty of guns. They are the great equalizer and enable the weak to defend against the strong.

That is, of course, unless the strong has bigger guns.

Well yes, but it's my (admittedly inexpert) understanding that swords, and katanas especially, reward skill and technique far more than strength.

But now I'm straying a bit from the topic. I just prefer the romanticism of swords I guess. An elegant weapon for a more civilized age, and all that. :P

I dunno it seems more like a penalty or handicap more than anything.

Honestly, having Kendo training myself, it's not completely applicable to everyday sword fighting. What you would want is actual Kenjutsu training.

Dad just started shooting so we currently own a ruger .22 and his favorite a springfield 9mm. He is now saving up for a Walther P99 or Walther PPQ in .40 SW.

The Five-Seven is my absolute favorite. It holds 20 rounds and shoots a bullet very similar to a rifle cartridge. It's also very accurate. My number 2 gun is the Russian made GSh18(http://world.guns.ru/handguns/hg/rus/gsh-1-e.html) If I ever became an assassin and every time we make up assasin stories, this is the gun I choose, the PSS Silent Pistol. Here is some info on it http://world.guns.ru/handguns/hg/rus/pss-silent-e.html and this is how quiet it shoots: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K73kKODFyzw (The video is in Russian but I out it here so y'all can see how quiet it is when it shoots)

I have an airsoft gun. I think my mom got it at walmart. And... I lost it.

The End.
