why get a gun when you can afford a cannon?

more like 20. hhaa it sucked man. then I stayed all night at the CT airport. Couldn't get a flight with SAA or Air Namibia out of Windhoek. High season for travelling, you know....
December you are probably heading back up right? Holidays an all.
Ever go to the coast. Walvis Baai or Swakopmund or Henties Baai?I speak quite a bit of Afrikaans a well...

if you were buying a gun to shoot someone, you wouldn't go to a shop and register it, you would buy it on the street. I think it's good for anyone interested to atleast know how to properly/safely handle a pistol, and it's fun to shoot on a range.

this is a bad thread. a newsboard isn't the place to announce to the world you're buying a gun. we'd all be a lot better off if guns owners kept it to themselves, and if anti-gun people quit villainizing all guns.

when you buy a gun in the u.s. there is a waiting period and a background check during that period. before you can get a gun though you have to apply for a license to carry one.
and buying bulletts can be tricky too cause you have to show your license.
what is the process in say europe?
im curious.

So when you buy a gun in the US, shooting lessons aren't compulsory?

(Oct 5 05, 09:46)In Britain you can no longer legally buy ANY handgun, if you want a rifle you must belong to a rifle club and be strictly vetted, want a shotgun you'd better be a farmer basically...
of course that's if you're bothered about buying them legally..... criminals still have no difficulty getting their paws on them...

if you're joking - ha ha
if you're not - make sure you sleep with it under your pillow sans safety....

I would think it's very much the same in most well-ordered countries.
kOna is so right, you can't just walk into Kmart and ask for a gun.

personally i like shooting anti gun people.
when you pull one on them they get really mad at the fact that you even own one. their face gets all red as they start to scream, then you shoot them and the expression they get is really priceless.
that should be a mastercard commercial.
bulletts. $60
gun. $600
shooting a rabid anti gun person to see the look on their face. priceless.(/end joke)

(Oct 5 05, 09:53)there is no process - you simply can't BUY fucking guns because we don't NEED them.

Land mass. Europe is condensed, USA isn't.
There is plenty of land that is available to hunt for sport and to control animal populations, as well as practice shooting clay pigeons and such for sport.

(Oct 5 05, 09:49)no, normally go during june holidays (hunting season). december is too hot in the desert.
i've never been to the west coast actually. i never lived there. my family bought the farm about 8 years ago. we're planning a fishing trip for next year.
A couple of years ago on a trip our jeep caught fire in the kalahari and i lost my passport in the blaze. had to spend a few days in windhoek as well to wait for an emergency passport to get back to SA. strange place, especially all the chinese people :)
brings back memories. haven't been there for over 3 years actually.
anyway, klein wêreld!
