I'm picking up my first gun on Friday, it's a Taurus .22 revolver:



It's only a 7-shot and I wanted a 10-shot, but I'm gonna get this gun for now and then maybe in the future I'll trade it for a Ruger 10-shot revolver.

Who in their right mind is going to sell a gun to a nutcase like you (who has had multiple stints in the looney bin)? Just go stick to using gear to bench 90lbs.

Gun rights are human rights. If he is a freeman on the streets and not in jail he has the basic right to bear arms.

Not where Kimbo lives, they're not. He's had multiple stays in the looney bin. Immediate disqualification just about everywhere from having a gun

He might be crazy but he still deserves his human rights Regardless of where he lives. If he is a danger to society then he should be in jail. Otherwise bear whatever arm you wallet can allow you purchase.

Even in countries where anyone can get a gun, I think there should be restrictions for the people with a criminal or psychiatric history (but on a case by case basis).

I thought the same, but the safety instructor at the gun range told me they only look at the last 5 years. I have a clean slate going back about 8 or 9 years, so I should be good.

I have the two things I need:

(1) No criminal or psychiatric record for the past 5 years
(2) The owner of the gun club is a licensed firearms dealer, I've got him vouching for me as well as about 5 or 6 other members vouching for me

That's all you need over here.
