    When I was at school last Tuesday we got into a discussion about guns, a possible ban on handguns, automatic rifles, etc. I was for the no ban where there were actually a couple of kids who were for a ban or partial ban on firearms altogether. It was pretty funny messing with the kids and disproving anything they could come up with.

    One of the students asked me if I owned a gun and my response was, "nope, I own several." This frustrated him more than I had seen in a while. He then started in with the guns kill people my response, "guns don't kill people, people kill people. If I put my pistol, which is in my car, on this table loaded and nobody touches it, will it fire? Nope, it requires someone to pull the trigger."

    I have actaully been thinking about getting a small pistol for the first time in my life recently. I am not too worried about my house but more about when I am out in my cars. I have put alarms in them to try and protect them while I am gone but since I have put the wheels and stereo in the stang I have noticed that it is starting to get noticed. By the time I am done with her with the side exhaust and paint I have planned I know it will draw more attention then I may always want. I also started putting a good stereo in my truck that will consist of some nice componants and a large limited edition phoenix gold amp. I don't advertise my stereos much but with the time I have invested in them I want to be sure they are safe as well as me.

    I have shot almost any kind of rifle from black powder rifles to M-60's(at college funny enough) but have never dealt with pistols. What would you recommend? Where should I go? Permits and shtuff???

    I went to Sportsmans Warehouse in Mesa and the same. No ammo.(At least for what i needed) Racks and racks but only a occasional small box. When I left ,the cashier asked if I found everything. I said" It would be nice to have some ammo in the store". He said they can't keep it on the shelves.! Said most people who would buy a box ,are now buying CASES of ammo. Said I could call when they get their order in an get a 24hr hold. IF they get what I need.

    being new to the hand gun area I would really rather put my hands on a couple of guns and even better yet shoot a few to see what I think would be the best. Is there a place that will let you shoot a couple of different styles?

    glocks made me think i hated 40 or 45 cal guns... till i shot the berretta. my 10/22 is a ruger! adorable and pretty reliable after i broke it in. fun for target practice. i do really love how my 9mm SIG fits in my hand and fires. that thing is a dream!

    and that taurus pic is a total drool fest! i am a sucker for pearl grips, but would love to see that on a Ruger security six! (no stub noses!!!)
