Americans!

Just a quick poll.

Do you own a gun?

Just wondering how many of you take advantage of your lax gun laws.

Nope. I'm still waiting for the "if I had a dime for every time you said something stupid" fund to mature.

Nope. But if I lived someplace open maybe I would buy a rifle or something.

I don't own any, nor am I aware of any friends who own guns. Crazy "right to bear arms" in our Constitution...

This does make me think of everyone's favorite "Tremors" star...

I don't own any personally, but I do live with a 22mm rifle, M1 Carbine, and a magnum.

Voted not American since I'm Canadian.

But, I do have 2 guns.
2006-03-29, 8:12 AM #17
Two .22's right now (woopty doo...), I'm going to try and buy a Kimber 1911 this summer once I force my sheriff to give me a concealed weapons permit.

I semi-own a few guns(it's between me and my dad). A few different rifles, shotguns, revolvers and if I remember correctly, a muzzleloader.
No sig.
2006-03-29, 9:05 AM #24
are you allowed guns that fire lots of bullets really quickly?

like uzis and m16s and stuff?
2006-03-29, 9:32 AM #25
The only gun I own is a toy replica of a battledroid's blaster from episode I but I don't think that counts, does it?

No... only law enforcement are allowed such guns(not sure on uzis but definitly P90's)
No sig.
2006-03-29, 10:00 AM #28
Where's "Not yet" option?

P90's will soon have a civilian version with an elongated barrel, but not yet. I don't have a gun yet, but that's only because we can't keep them on campus :p

The PS90 came out in January.

It's still prohibited in Canada. So is the FS2000. Because Canada sucks.

I don't have one yet, but I'm leaning toward an AR-15 or (hopefully) a SIG 556. Really those are my only options if I want a military-patterned rifle in Canada.

I'm not in America, but I'm getting my assault rifle licesnse as soon as I can, and then I'll probably get an Ak4 or similar. Swedish gun law > American gun laws.
VTEC just kicked in, yo!

I own a 12-gauge Bernoulli auto-loader.

My dad owns about 15 guns.

I don't pwn any guns. I figure if I was into deer hunting or whatever I would, but I'm not a hunter.

I would seriously suggest getting the FS2000 instead of the PS90. It has the more standard clip design which is easier to carry, built-in iron sights (which the P90 doesn't have) and a rail instead of the integrated red dot sight (the PS90 doesn't have any rails). All around it's much, much more useful.

Most of the people who go to this site are not the kinds of people who live out in the country, and especially not in middle america, so the results are going to be skewed. People out here all own guns, unless they live downtown or in the suburbs, and even then many do.
