Guns? What would I do with a gun? Who owns guns? (When one medical form I've had to sign asks if I own a gun, I just leave it blank! Let them draw their own conclusions. I haven't lied. I just haven't answered the question! 

[Caladisi kid]

Answer to question:

1 : 90%

2 : 100%

3 : 0%

4 : 0%

5 : 30%

Then questions ; 

How many do I WANT ?  100%

How Many Are Used Regularly?  65%

my 2 bits.  

 

[Presidio]

Lord Almighty only gifted me with one gun.  It's gets oiled and used right regular.

[Shooting Bull]

Sadly after the tragic boating accident I'm left with none. 

 

(Happily accepting contributions to my restocking effort.  )

[Eyesa Horg]

Seems a lot of folks take their guns for boat rides.

You sound just like my wife.

One day I happened to look behind the bedroom door and there were a few odds and ends leaning there.  Amongst the junk was an Egyptian? rolling block rifle I didn't recognize.  I don't know where or when I got it.  Dusty and dirty - it had been there years. I cleaned it up with Pledge and took it to a gunshop and got a tidy little sum. That's how many I have. 

[Griff]

One shy of "enough".  And when that slot get's filled, it'll still be "one shy of enough!"

More than I need and less than I want.  

 

That's what I used to say before the boating accident. 

[Bart Slade]

When you say "guns"....are you talking about ALL guns including the CAS stuff?   Just stuff that's functional outside of CAS (home/personal defense, hunting, etc)?   What about percussion or flint lock black powder guns, count those too?   What about antiques that are really challenging to obtain ammunition for?

All I can say is if we are attacked and they try to come ashore at Granby Place, I believe I can hold them off for a while . 

[Reverend P. Babcock Chase]

Frankly it's nobody's business but mine. Thank you very much.

[John Kloehr]

Most of my firearms are on board my boat, Unsinkable II. the rest of my guns are my 3 carry guns. 2 1911s and an old .38 revolver.

[Sgt. C.J. Sabre, SASS #46770]

Yes,

[Tennessee williams]

Back before I sold all mine for a loss, I could've shot a different one every day and not shot the same one twice in a year.

I can truthfully say that I own no guns.

 

Neither do I own any howitzers or mortars.

Just so you know, a mortar IS a gun.

[Alpo]

How many guns do you have that you have because you jokingly made an offer and it was accepted?

 

I believe I have three of them.

From Wikipedia, but matches with what I remember from the 1863 Ordnance Department manual:

"A gun was a cannon designed to fire in a flat trajectory, a howitzer was a shorter piece designed to throw exploding shells in an arcing trajectory, and a mortar was a very short piece for firing at elevations of more than 45°."

 

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

One less then I want

Quite correct, but a gun is also defined as a weapon with a smooth barrel, which a mortar has. 

[Blackwater 53393]

Not enough of any of those categories except safe queens.

 

 I don’t have any safe queens.

Does that apply to the "tube" on an M1An tank? How about the 16in. naval rifles on the Iowa-class BB's?

That would make the 12 pound Mountain Howitzer a gun.

That's what sank the canoe that had my guns on it. Riles me up to this very day.

[Dusty Wyatt]

Three that have never had more than a box run through them. I still like them though, and really do need to make an effort to work them into the rotation.

I've got one of those. 

I was given (free) 2 holsters, one belt and one shoulder holster. The shoulder holster is a S&W. A little research and it's for a 8 3/8" model 29. That free holster cost me a bit of $$$.

 

BS

It does. By definition, any smoothbore weapon is a gun.

Just me, or the whole family?
