Ask a firearms enthusiast
June 7, 2023 at 9:20 am
I'm pretty proficient when it comes to guns. I don't own many, but I like the ones I have.
I have a good friend of mine that started the "Godless Gunnies" group too. Here's a video with him (when he was fat) talking a bit on that (because I know some will have questions about this as well):

Do you think there should be any restriction on gun ownership?

I swung twin .50s in a power tub back in the early '70s. Killed people for $8.37/day. Don't have any guns now, don't need them.

My partner is thinking of getting a pistol, kind of surprising since she previously didn't want any in the house. She's queer so she, perhaps undestandably, is starting to feel a little targeted in a red state.

Are you able to see past your personal gun responsibility that there is a gun problem in this country?

270 or 30 06 for ridge to ridge shots? Careful, you're going to be judged as a person based on your response.

I think if I was going to kill someone at a distance, I wouldn't use a firearm. I feel that a flamethrower would do the job and give me more satisfaction.
