2 rifles and 2 pistols. I took a hunter safety course but far more important/useful was the training and experience I received in the military.
by Cyndi Ninja on February 15th, 2008
Does a squirt gun count? No? Then zero, zip, zilch. I have never taken a safety course and will not own a fire arm until I do so.

I own three guns. I use them for hunting and keep them locked up. I have never taken a firearm safety course as my father taught me how to use them and be safe, and he learned it from his father.
by denyse76 on August 3rd, 2009

by Little big mouth on August 3rd, 2009
NO & NO. I'd be afraid to own a gun, I can't control my temper & it would be dangerous for us all. BTW Highlander, I wanted to e mail you a question but I don't have your e mail.
I'm asking you because I respect you. Do you agree or disagree with this statement. "You can be against the war but still support our troops". My nephew told me that because I want our soldiers to come home. My daughter says you either support them both or you're against them both. I don't know whose right
by Bigcurt on April 7th, 2009
Three guns never had a safty course but I have been shooting for 35 years
by xena-angel on August 10th, 2008

by isaiah on August 5th, 2008
i own a remington 870 express and a ruger 10/22, i never attended a gun safety course but i was taught gun safety by my grandpa.
by Armed and Dangerous on July 19th, 2008
I own three hand guns one assault rifle and one assault shotgun and thousands of rounds of ammo, and I never had to take a safety course,but I was in the Army for three years.Where I live in Pa you don't have to take a firearm safety course.To get a concealed weapons permit here in Pa all you have to do is pay 40$ list 3 references who they do not call and they will give you your permit that day.It is kind if scary knowing that any yahoo that never got convicted of a felony can get a permit with out taking a course.I think everyone needs some kind of safety course,but gun laws vary from state to state
by Rae1223 on July 14th, 2008
I personally own four. Yes it was a REquirement to go through "Hunters Safety."
by JanZizka on June 9th, 2008

by 232499 on April 21st, 2008

by R U Sirius on March 27th, 2008
none.........but with the state of the union today, I need to change that......The last time I took a safety course was in the AF firing an M16 and I believe someone shot at my target cause I was able to get Marksmenship.
by That Guy Again on March 27th, 2008
I always told my children: "If anyone ever asks you if we own firearms and how many tell them daddy says it's none of their business".
The first gun safety course was called Boy Scout Summer Camp.
by tailgunner on March 6th, 2008

Federal law permits ex-convicts to have concealed weapons, regardless of offense for which they went to prison. Do you agree?
