    It turned out to be a lousy water gun - I can piss better, so will have to look for a more high powered one next time - It was an ebay special.
    As for guns over here it is mainly Farmers that have shotguns to keep the pests from their crops, foxes and pigeons and stuff like that.
    We get some people that have airguns - I think you can legally walk into a shop at a certain age and buy one of those things, I had one when I was younger but generally fired at targets in the garden.

    There are clay pigeon shooting clubs not too far from me, I had a go of my uncles shotgun once down there and some of the other members came over and asked me to try theirs, Some are different weights and lengths but I never went back after that.
    Shotguns have to have a license and are to be kept in a cabinet concreted to the wall (or something along those lines) I think you even have to show your license to purchase shells for a shotgun.

    Apart from that there isn't much going on over here in the UK, crossbows and archery are really in specialist areas where you can pay for tuition.
    We have had a few nut jobs go crazy over the last few years but I can count on 1 hand, we are pretty tame over here.

    However we have some bull**** laws, it is still dodgy ground if you seriously harm someone that has broken into your property - I think things are getting better for the home owner but If it still a grey area.

    I have a Marlin .22 LR, a Marlin 336 .30-.30, a TC omega .50 cal blackpowder inline, my bow, plus all the handguns, rifles and shotguns my family owns. You can take my guns when you pry them out of my cold dead hands!

    Guns doesn't make your home safer, at all. USA is one of the most violent countries in the world because of the gun law. Americans love their guns to much.

    Completely agreed. I'm sick of hearing "guns dont kill, people kill" or "guns make you safe" BS.

    You know most of the guns that are used in a crime are obtained illegally by criminals. Most of the gun crimes are committed by minorites that come from a 3rd world countries and the honest people need the right to protect our selves against the criminals in America.

    Plus everyone does not live in a neighborhood where the personal are protected by the police, private guards, etc.

    What do you people do when there is somebody who breaks into your house and you cannot protect yourself or your family. The police do not protect the poor of America they only protect the businesses and the rich.

    Your government did not ban guns to protect you they only did it to have more political power. Please tell me that you do not believe that banning guns will make people more safe. I do not care what the Liberals say about statistics that were made up and completely baised.

    So, as you all can see...this thread is only creating animosity amongst the members here.

    This is where we should end it before it gets too nasty...

    This is just a 'Gaming' website...

    Oh yeah, when you're seating in your car and some thug points a gun at you demanding you to hand the key to him, what would you do ? Shoot him ?
    And when you're walking on street and some guy came out of nowhere and point a gun at your face to rob you, what would you do then ? Get your gun and shoot the bastard ?

    That's what happened to my uncle and myself. He lost his Tacoma pick up and I was luckier, only lost $15.
