Gab, it is our 'RIGHT' as written by our founding fathers, it's called the 2nd amendment, "The Right to Bear Arms". But as you point out, and is advocated in my circle of gun owners, it's all about education, and who should/ should not have access to them. Just a simple gun safety class is not good enough, there should be mandatory classes, and hands on skills that one must pass. But, that is already in most clubs, it's the one who should not have a gun is the one who spoils the fruits for the rest of us.

True enough (In reference to the Collector part). I'm trying to avoid too much debate here because this is my first gun control discussion, hence why I didn't reply to the actual amendment.
