As a side note,Read an interesting stat yesterday,in 2008 there were 12,000 gun related homicides in the U.S,in the same year 11 total in Japan.

How many of those 12,000 were gang related? Is it better to have a gun related homicide or a knife related homicide?
Japan also had zero theft related crimes after the tsunami, while New Orleans, the east coast, pick your disaster in the US, continue to see looting after every disaster.
Is it really the guns or is it the lack of ethics?

Meanwhile, Mexico, which has very strict gun control laws, had over 50,000 gun related homicides last year. Go figure.

Check the murder rates in Chicago and DC, both of which pretty much ban personal firearm ownership.

Gentlemen, as per the SRP rules, let's confine our discussion of 'gun control' to sight alignment and trigger control ........ ........

Here are a few of my arsenal (Sig Sauer P229 [9mm] and Ruger SR 1911 CMD not in picture). The Beretta Nano probably sees the most use, S&W 442 is a close second, but the recently acquired P229 might take over that slot sooner than later.

And breathing. Don't forget breathing.

...and don't be a jerk, squeeze....

i carry concealed every day, no matter what...i live in Massachusetts which is very strict with the firearms laws, when you apply for your Class A Large Capacity License To Carry Firearms (LTC) the Police chief in your city/town can decide to either allow you to carry concealed which is known as (No Restrictions) or he can decide to put restrictions on your License To Carry known as (Target & Hunting) which basically makes your "License To Carry" not actually a license to carry hahahaha

haha, its pretty convoluted, however I am fortunate enough to have an unrestricted license to carry since i live in a small town about 20 miles inland of Boston, so my police chief has no problem with law abiding citizens, who have had a background check carrying a concealed firearm since we've proven that were not a threat...

anyway back to show and tell haha...my Every Day Carry is a 9mm Gen 4 Glock 26...a nice compact firearm which i carry using a VERY comfortable Inside the Waistband holster...it's basically like a Crossbreed SuperTuck.....leather against your skin, and a custom molded Kydex holster mounted to it...



i also own a S&W M&P 40 with a custom Apex trigger installed, it was actually the "Range & Carry kit"



i also have a Smith & Wesson M&P15 Rifle to round out my M&P collection


my wife has a nice Ruger SR22 pistol which is an excellent little plinking pistol for a fun range day

and to round out my current collection, a family member just gave me this old Colt .22 match pistol that belonged to her husband who passed away 30 years ago...



take a look at the price on this 50 round box of .22 Long Rifle haha
