Re: Any of you guys shoot?
 
Thanks guys!
People like different things, and I always thought it was best to join in on what you like and ignore what you don't. Calling someone a murderer or killer for having a hobby (aside from playing around) is not the way to act as a grown man. We're all friends here.

David and ilvracn, thanks for the advice! That MPX sounds very interesting. No having to stock multiple calibers. I'll take any other questions to another forum.

I shoot too. I'm a licensed gun owner in the Netherlands. I shoot black powder exclusively. I am a sucker for Colt single actions, I've repaired and retimed most of them.
Some of the firearms I own (and have shot):
Colt 1849 Pocket from 1853
Manhattan Firearms .36 revolver from 1860
Colt Single Action Army from 1911 in 38-40 Winchester
Colt 1851 Navy 2nd generation replica (.36)
Colt 1860 Army replica
Colt Single Action Army replica in .45 Colt
I have a Hawken rifle replica but rarely shoot it.

I still want to get a nice lever action rifle. Would be sweet to have an original Winchester 1873 in 38-40.

I'm sorry for your loss. I think at this point most people have lost someone they loved or someone they knew to terrorism. For us it was just last year at a Chiefs game. A good friend of the Little Blonde was injured by an animal

.

This is the reason I carry and why I shoot (I also have a big family that loves deer steaks). It's just a tool, and it beats throwing rocks at deer.

More importantly, if I don't protect my family members, who will?

Whatever side of the fence you fall on, I hope none of us here ever have to deal with losing a friend or family member to terrorism again.
