Poll Who got the strap?... Official Gun Owners Thread

[GOAT]

:foh6:

I been thinkin about gettin a pistol for a while to protect mi casa. But having lil kids kinda makes me worry.

I know when i was a kid whenever i was alone i would snoop around the crib just looking at all the shit i couldnt look at when my parents were home.

Are any of u guys gun owners and parents?

Do u ever worry about the kids finding it?

strap city lol

nah but we've had talks with them and will continue to

my oldest has been outside with me shooting several times....she likes to collect the shells

imo you just have to make it a non-taboo thing....its just normal

im not putting an uzi in her hand like that jackass instructor, but they wont be scared or confused about weapons

 

[GOAT]

I feel like guns should be taboo tho

Like i dont wanna buy one for fun... I just want a level playing field if someone try come in my crib w/ one.

Im not tryn turn my kids into NRA members

I read the OP after I voted. I dont have kids, but I do have gun.

Demystify weapons. Dont just hide them and hope they never run across them. Talk to them about what they are and that they arent toys.

Get a biometric safe

If I was back in the states I most definitely would.... that shit aint allowed here tho..

that being said.. it's just me tho.. I'd think twice or take more precautions if kids were in the house

Bermuda.. aint no guns allowed out here..Folks aint even allowed to own tazers or pepper spray... lol legally anyway.

 

[Hustlelitó]

Get a safe for sure if you get one.

 

[Skeptically_Chi]

I agree wholeheartedly @GOAT

I saw what ppl with guns do to ppl with/without them and it completely turned me against them. One of my hardest areas was at the range and going on a tour because I despised guns. However, I have a sense of protecting my family now more than ever

I have a small gun that I keep locked in a safe. I'm honestly afraid of guns so I haven't been in the safe in years.

I don't know what I'd do if I was in a situation that called for me to actually use it.

I also have children so that worries me a bit.

You have lil ones around? If so, How you make certain they stay away from the firearms if they aint locked up?

 

[Loquacious]

My mama got a gun. I can’t get with it.

3 kids of my own, and 1 extra every other week

they know they're there and they are not to touch them

we clean them in front of em, we shoot around them, we talk about them, etc

they really dont care about that shit because the mystique is taken away

oh thats just daddy's gun, dont touch that

aside from that they're never alone, they're with my mother in law all day staying busy
