Probably a little of both.

Everything I own is legal so I'm not worried about that but most have been purchased from individuals so really there is no record that would tie them to me in the event of a confiscation if that ever was to happen.

No one has my address on here either but if you stop and think about it with the amount of info we put into posts (city we live, work, hang outs, shops we use, pics of our trucks, sometimes the home is in the background etc etc) if some thief really wanted to track us down I doubt it would be that hard. I realize most thieves are lazy bums but better safe than sorry in my book.

Talking

I would think that a thief would be smart enough not to mess with someone who owns multiple guns and sleeps with a loaded gun less than a foot away, but then again there are some really stupid people out there

I have a handfull of handguns, a couple of deer rifle and of course the trusty 870 that im pretty sure everyone owns or has owned. My latest buy was a PX4 storm .40 cal and a S&W .38 airweight. I am in the process of gathering info to supress my P22.

I have never owned an 870 and never care to. I absolutely hate those shotguns and do not understand why SOOO many people rave about them when you can get something much better for a fraction more...and too boot they don't look extremely hideous as the 870 does. P22's are fun tho, have one of those.

Does anybody here do Cowboy Action Shooting? My dad and the other guy I work with are big into that. My dad has 7 or 8 matching sets of ruger revolvers now and I don't even know how many shotguns and rifles that he uses just for Cowboy shooting. I used to be a SASS member but haven't done it in a few years. I've got a set of 7 1/2" Bisley .45's that I used when I was doing it. If I ever start again I'll probably get some 4 1/2" 32's and try to find a "reasonably" priced 32 Lightning so i can go for some amazing times.

You must not have had a chance to shoot a variety of different shotguns then. A $200 dollar 870 may be a good, CHEAP gun, but that's about as far as it gets. Have you ever shot a Benelli Nova? Even something cheap like one of those is much more enjoyable to shoot.

You guys are amateurs, at best. I'm a professional gun designer. Let me show you some of my prototypes.

This the the MP-47K. Its a hybrid of the classic MP5 and AK-47.



My photon/liquid plasma MEK-12A phaser gun.



M4 with M203^6. Popular design chosen by newbs on CoD.



For close-quarters combat with accuracy precision, my sniper knife



This is a rework, with a more balanced blade and higher-powered IR 12x scope.



If silencers are your thing, you'll love this one:



This is called the noob stick. Auto fire, 12" blades. Super deadly. Super expensive



And lastly my prototype automated sentinel. Its got a 400 yard walking range and can carry a variety of different blades (serated, smooth, dog eared, etc).

Savage .22 FTW!

I have one and a .243 savage. Dad has a 12ga(can't remember what it is right now as I hate shotguns), old 30-30 win.(won it off of a punch board, we call it his $5 gun), para ordinance .45, and about to add a ruger lcp .380 with laser grips.

The Savage .17's with the accu-trigger's are very nice as well. Tight shooting little guns.
