The supposedly "good guy" gun owner thread

Yeah, he either needs to get her to the range, buy a gun safe, or get rid of the thing.
Most home owners who are killed by own weapon, aren't trained, or at the very least practice shooting one.
Soneone breaks in, with him gone and her there, not knowing about it.
Is recipe for disaster.
Just my opinion on the last part
It's definitely in a lockbox, I know that much. It's just that nobody knows exactly where it is in the house but him. He's a crafty dude, does woodwork and welding.. if I had to guess he probably built a hidden storage spot for it in the wall/floor somewhere. lol
His girl has a stun gun by preference.
Well that's good.
I have to keep mine away from my wife in case she goes full phyco.
She actually scared of guns, because a friend of hers was playing with one in front if her and a couple of other people. BAM blew his head off.
But you can never be to sure.
Letting someone know you have one, is a complete sign of trust.
Letting someone know where its at, is leaving yourself completely vulnerable.
Seems like there needs to be better standards for who owns certain kinds of guns. I would suggest the most relaxed standards for a .410 Shotgun which is basically just a bird gun. It might kill a person with a close range shot to the face or sting like a mofo at longer range.
When you get to anything with bullets, I think a standard should be in place that shows the seriousness and competency of the candidate wanting a real firearm. I'm thinking a good investment in time at the range with an instructor. If the instructor think your nuts or unstable he could boot you out.
One major condition of this is the course can't be allowed to become Cost Prohibitive, or give the government an ability to infringe on the 2nd Amendment by making it to expensive to pass a course.
In terms of the role of Government, they should not be able to take your guns, but I do think they have a legit power to regulate Commerce. I think the Government could reasonably and Constitutionally regulate the sale of firearms, but I do not think they should be able to arbitrarily confiscate them or even ban them.

I was being a troll, not accusing you of being one. And once again, the cold war had nothing to do with an invasion of the US, for land or other means. Therefore, having several million citizens with guns will not have acted as a deterrent against an invasion which the Russians didn't plan in the first place.
real positive use of those background checks.
For those not in the know what he is saying is even when they do find out that a criminal did try to buy a firearm they didn't try them for the crime....
I got two guns - one on each of my arms - the few times I used them a few times in order to hurt people.
When you win, you get to cheer, and when you loose you learn a lesson..
Lessons learnt:
- One time me and 3 of my friends were on a island partying, with lots of other people - then one dude came up and told me to give him all my cigarettes, when I said 'no' - a fight broke out - two of my friends grabbed him and pushed him away, and told him to get his own cigarettes..
- a litle while later the dude came back with probably 12 friends - my fourth friend knew who they were so he had ran away, said they lived next to him didn't want to get involved, half a year later, the gang burned down his family's house.. Served him right for not helping me..
Ended up with a swollen black eye, some bruised ribs a few days - but kept my cigarettes..
Most of the other people were allright tough, except for one in the gang who were pushed into the sea, I think he got a cold.
Lesson learnt here, my guns can produce a cold..
Another time I were in fight and lost badly, we were 4 against two, however the two people we fought were some serious fighters, I heard later, that one of them were in the olympic games in kickboxing.
I don't know how the fight started, I just came out from the pub, and saw one dude sitting ontop of one of my friends beating him repeatedly in the face on a hamburger-joint across the street - so I ran as fast as I could from behind - and kicked him straight between the legs in the balls, and planned to push him off my friend afterwards, but seemingly he must have very tiny balls, because it didn't affect him...
He flew around and lifted me with one hand and beat four or five blows repeatedly into my head, until I blacked out..
I were shook awaken by a policeman, who told us that those two had been going around causing trouble - and asked if we wanted to press charges, we were pretty drunk tough, and not really good at giving a description, so never heard anything else from the police after that (regarding that matter atleast)..
Lesson learnt here, olympic kickboxers got tiny balls..
Seriously tough.. I think if you bring a gun to a fight, you have to be prepeared to use it.
It's not easy shooting at another person, if you're not trained to do it.
Shooting at live targets, is a completely different thing than shooting at the gun-range..
You'll automatically be seen as a much bigger treat, wich is harder to get around without a fight - and there is a good chance whoever you're defending against is also armed. :-/
If you're planning to defend against criminals, they are probably allready farther along breaking social rules than you, and you're probably more likely to get injured badly. :-/
So guns are a bad idea, especially if you're not trained to use them against live targets, in the army or something. :-/

Why do anti gun people lie so much
http://buzzpo.com/moms-demand-action-caught-red-handed-lying-open-carry-demonstration/
getting desperate aren't we? what has that got to do with a "good guy with a gun"?
Lets not forget to add that it was a no knock raid at 5am, for all the shooter knew someone was trying to break into his home at 5am. besides he cant be a good guy, having illegal drugs and firearms is already illegal.

That went right over you head didn't it. if and when at what point he started to involve himself in illegal activities he's no longer a good guy with a gun he was a drug dealer with a gun. and unless he had a record then a background check wouldn't have done nothing to stop this. kind of how a law that says don't sell illegal drugs didn't stop him from allegedly having illegal drugs (hence the raid).
as for the moms with no life; they used a lie about a situation to press an agenda before the even knew the real facts. kind of how that side works screw the data lets just go on feelings.

Another "good guy" and "for all the shooter knew someone was trying to break into his home." Because that explains the shoot first logic.

You just cant get anything right can you.
My father died and distant relatives were trying to take advantage of him in death, people said they were moving out , we went in to inspect the home got into an argument, i was assaulted. and guess what? as a gun owner i didn't shoot anyone even though i had access to a firearm.
as my father lay dying in pain from cancer they refused his wish for them to leave his home, but hey this is on topic right?
"broke in"
It's weird how that good guy logic works. Everyone's a good guy and how quickly that can crumble.

Why anyone would defend these guys is beyond me.

I used to know a guy that shot 2 people with a 12ga shotgun while they were breaking into his house. He shot the first guy in the chest coming down his hall and killed him. Then he ran to a back bedroom where the other guy was trying to climb out a window and shot him in the ass, but he made it out the window. And the law picked him up at the hospital. The incident was ruled justifiable homicide. Apparently the two intruders were armed.

Shooting the first guy sounds just, but shooting a fleeing bad guy sounds wrong to me. Happy to hear he is safe never the less.....
so are you saying you were armed both times but didn't use or flash your guns?I got two guns - one on each of my arms - the few times I used them a few times in order to hurt people.
