I agree mate, I have only 2 concerns with guns, otherwise, whatever floats peoples boats is good with me.

1. That a gun you use at home isn't so ridiculous that when you shoot a criminal with it, it goes through them, through the wall, through the neighbors wall and into the neighbor.

2. That some people are f**king liabilities and shouldn't be allowed to have an air rifle let alone a assault rifle.

I'm not the best shot in the world, but I'm good enough to hit what I'm aiming at. And I have excellent gun safety awareness (I make sure they're cleaned properly, and know whether they're loaded or not, and keep them in a safe place), lots of people don't.
