    I do not own guns, and I do not support it.

    I have a black one of those, and also a Glock 23 .40 Cal

    I got the above pictures Phoenix Arms .22LR because its so small and tiny, only cost me $100 brand new, and the ammo is CHEAP.

    I spend about $100 on .40 Cal S&W hollow points(I am a firm believer that you should only practice with what you actually carry) every time I go to the range with my Glock 23. For $20 I have not ran out of my .22LR rounds yet and I've shot it at the range about 10 times now.

    For $100 its a great little plinker. My only complaint is that it has 2 safeties(My glock has none) and one of the safeties is stuck in the "safe" position if the clip is out. If you rack one on the chamber, you have to either fire it, or get an empty clip to get the round out.

    It also says Ontario, CA on it..... This is Ontario California, US not Canada.

    Not too far of a drive, and I understand they replace parts for free.

    Phoenix Arms, which is not in Arizona, but in Ontario, which is not in Canada, but in California. :p Makes perfect sense. :D

    I don't have one. I might get one once I hit that jackpot. & I do support guns for those who can afford them and are at risk from thugs or hoodlums.

    As a former gunsmith, I support guns all the way. Guns have saved my life before once during an attempted break-in, and let me tell you one thing, its not at all like you see in the movies.

    4 guns ain't even close to an arsenal. Since air soft guns and BB guns are technically considered guns in the eyes of the law I own 4 guns as well.

    I have a CO2 powered BB pistol, a regular BB pistol, a green gas powered air soft revolver and my Savage 30.06

    Coolness. My deer/elk rifle is a left-handed Savage Weather Warrior in .308.

    Gotta love that Accu-Trigger. :)

    which convinced me that not everybody should be allowed to carry a gun.

    The giveaway turned out to have a few oddities.

    I didn't notice, until the contest was over, that WordPress wasn't allowing registrations. Only "anonymous" posting was allowed. Worse, I am having to leave user registrations disabled -- because WordPress isn't accepting comments from logged-in users. It only allows comments from users who are not logged in. More bugs from Wordpress. Arggh...

    The second very strange thing is that the winner disappeared. His email account was closed by the time he won the contest! Today I finally gave up and randomly selected a new winner.

    Hopefully this one doesn't disappear on me. :D

    Carrying and owning are two different things. Most people are not permitted to carry without a license and usually the rights to bear arms is restricted to homes and private property.

    I own 2 guns and I am issued one 45 revolver. When I had to protect the candidates I was issued a rifle. The problems with gun permits are the bad guys are not permitted. I have never encountered or have known a person with a license to commit a crime with a gun. I wish more more civilians would get permits.

    Glad to hear that. With all the stalkers out there you must feel a lot safer. :D

    Sure. In high crime areas local business owners with carry permits would really help. It would give the honest working people a chance against the criminals that prey on them and thier customers.
