The catch-all gun thread

[TheBeardedDude]

...be required to have training (regardless of gun type, or private vs public carry/use), a license, and insurance?

Training, yes, and annual re-certification in proficiency and safety/lock-out maintenance.
License, yes, to aid in regulation and tracking of firearms across state lines.
Insurance, no, because it would over-inflate the market and raise the price of firearms.

"Training, yes, and annual re-certification in proficiency and safety/lock-out maintenance."

Where? Because I can safely say there was no such requirement in Tennessee when I lived there.

"License, yes, to aid in regulation and tracking of firearms across state lines."

For all guns you have to have a license? I know that one isn't true.

"Insurance, no, because it would over-inflate the market and raise the price of firearms."

Cost isn't an issue I am concerned with.
