  Gun Control
Gun ownership varies greatly by region and there is a significant correlation between the percentage of handgun ownership and the rate of gun-related homicide.
Opponents of gun control argue that gun owners often use their weapons to deter crime and that handguns are most commonly used for this purpose.
Gun control opponents are law abiding citizens who put greater trust in individualism than in the government to protect their safety.

 Money
Money is the material shape of the principle that men who wish to deal with one another must deal by trade and give value for value.
Money allows no power to prescribe the value of your effort except by the voluntary choice of the man who is willing to trade you his effort in return.
Money is the scourge of the men who attempt to reverse the law of causality—the men who seek to replace the mind by seizing the products of the mind.

 Making money on gun control...
To be sure, the now infamous Lautenberg Gun Ban which disarmed those convicted of a mere shouting match with a family member became law in 1996 when both Houses of Congress were controlled by Republicans.
It is interesting to note that during President Bill Clinton's administration, the Democratic party enforced party unity and discipline to their platform calling for severe restrictions and in some cases out right bans on the ownership and use of firearms by the law abiding.
Thus DeLay's quest for your money is as fraudulent as are the claims of gun control advocates, who claim that "gun free" societies are safer.

 The Gun From Hell
At 600psi the gun initially shot anywhere from 289 to 310 fps, with one of the first few being a double loaded shot which left paint in the barrel (some idiot left the anti-double-feed spring out of the gun the last time he re-assembled it).
One interesting note is that twice the gun fired a string of 6 or 7 shots in a row at exactly 298 fps, only varying off a few fps between the two strings.
The gun tended to use a large volume of air and drain the 68ci tank rather quickly, not to mention producing some rather strange fluctuations and an odd sound from the valve system.

 FR&I - Selecting your first gun
The gun can be too large for the woman to grip properly and she may not be able to shoot as well with it as she can with one of the club’s smaller sized ‘loaner’ guns.
In one instance a couple came in with a revolver with small sized grips - the wife shot the gun much better than her husband, as it fit her hand properly; he did better with a ‘loaner’ gun with larger grips.
There are gun safes out there that are sized to fit just one handgun which can be bolted to heavy furniture or a bedframe, all the way up to a gun safe large enough to walk into.

 Amazing beliefs of an Anti-Gun Person
That guns are an ineffective means of self defense for rational adults, but in the hands of an ignorant criminal become a threat to the fabric of society.
That guns should be banned because of the danger involved, and live reporting from the battlefield, which can keep the enemy informed of troop deployments, getting thousands of troops killed and perhaps losing a war, is a protected act that CANNOT be compromised on.
That gun owners are a threat by existing that must be destroyed by any means possible, and their rights are unimportant, but the thugs who attack us on the street who the gun owners wish to be armed against are simply a problem we have to put up with.

 Canadian gun registry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Canadian gun registry is a government-run registry of all legally-owned guns in Canada.
Canada had a gun registry earlier during World War II, when all people were compelled to register their weapons out of fear of enemy subversion.
However, gun registry checks are automatic with other searches for information on unrelated matters, and often quoted number of checks done does not reflect the true utility of the registry or what value line police officers place in the registry.
