    A strange thing for someone who professes to understand handguns to write.
    Misdirected bullets always worry me.

    Alas, I can't claim to have hit everything I was aiming at, nor could anybody else I know including the nation's best. I guess it depends on what you were aiming at?

    I never had to shoot at many 'things'. Everyone I've aimed at, and was in a position to shoot, I did. Other than that.. just range 'practice' every week.

    This wouldn't really be a problem for lawabiding citizens, would it?

    Just the 'drive by' type members of society..
    It's only when you take the piss out of a partially shaved wookie with an overactive 'me' gene and stapled on piss flaps that it becomes a problem.

    Ok off topic here....so if you dont have a gun licence and feel your property and personal safety is at risk.

    We need a mafia that all ride bikes and fucks up anyone who gets in their way.
    People would start seeing bikes then.

    Perhaps I just like guns....

    Maybe you're not unintelligent - maybe you are: Psychotic? Immature? Compensating for a lack of something? A child? Paranoid? American?

    Tell us all why you'd like to carry a gun around.

    If it was legal and every other bastard was carrying handguns... I'd have a couple of Uzis.

    Don't take a knife to a gunfight and all that.
