I asked this question over at www.rpg.net and was suprised at the results. I would be interested to see if the results here are similar here on this board. There is a lot of talk about guns around this forum so I thought I would see how many of us actually own and use firearms. If none of the reasons I filled in fit your opinion please just pick the plain yes or no and if you want comment below why you do or do not own a firearm.

Thanks
mcb

Edit: If you vote "No, and Firearms are illegal to own were I am from.", it would be nice if you could state what country you are from.
