Why we really own guns

Yeah hunting. Yeah home protection. But also I just think guns are cool and shooting is fun. That's valid too. We don't need some deep reason every time, sometimes the answer is just "because I want to."

YES - to all the above, and because we still can ...

Having fun is more important than some realize. I shoot because I like it and enjoy a challenge. Not every hobby needs a reason other than making you happy.

Hobby, fun, protection and provide food!

I agree with all of the reasons noted above. In my collection there are not only many functional modern guns, but a lot of old weapons from previous centuries. Just going in that room and looking and handling them takes me on a mental journey of the history of the nation and how we got here. May those who would erase that freedom ALWAYS be faced with defeat!
