Nice Walther and suppressor!! I have a Walther PPS (9mm) (Bond uses the PPS in the latest Bond books).

I need to get a suppressor before they are banned. They are legal in Washington (have to pay a huge tax though and wait 6 months).

Exactly. I hope I never have to use my fire extinguisher to protect my home from burning to the ground but I'll keep it around just in case.

He's doing the Canadian thing where they like to boast about the British Army occupying Washington during the War of 1812. Which happened way before any of us were born.

Oh ok, I was referring to way we occupy a country and establishes long term bases to keep an eye on things.

Most people seem to forget that your personal safety is your personal responsibility. Protect yourself first, call the police after it's safe to do so. When seconds count, the police are always minutes away.

I'd rather have a weapon and not need it than need a weapon and not have it. Just because you own a gun doesnt mean that you will ever have to use it to defend yourself or someone else in your lifetime. One would hope to never have to use it.

Everyone that says that they dont need a weapon, thats great I'm happy for you. But become a crime victim just one time and your attitude will change, if you live through the experience. I choose not to be a victim.

I got robbed at gun point back in '87 and I was with two other Marines. It's a fucked up feeling and no one wants to be the one to take that first bullet to the face so we kept our cool and no one got hurt. Even if he had a knife it would have been a fucked up situation. Who wants to get a major artery slashed for some pocket cash...

Fine. Lets play this out. It is also accurate to say that only 3% of 1% of Americans will use a gun to kill another American. So if 30% of adults in America own a gun and only .0003% of them are killing people with their guns, what is your fucking beef about people owning guns?

You are far more likely to die by being hit by a drunk driver than by a crazy man with a gun. Go ban alcohol and leave gun owners alone!
