Didn't know if that was the case or not.
I meant to ask if it was mainly collecting, it's just that I'm bad with words and prone to making unclear and confusing sentences

Like Pumpjack said, this is a target pistol, it has no other practical uses other than to be huge and shoot a big bullet.

Custom paint job?
Yep.
Decals of Upotte girls on their respective guns.
This makes me wonder what the Desert Eagle would look like in Upotte.

Injuries/accidents are inevitable in any sport, really.
So an accident with a gun usually results in death- that just puts it on par with the more extreme sports like rock climbing, motor cross, and off-trail skiing.
I agree that the accessibility of guns in the states is a mite too easy, but I also think that guns really do get a bad rap.
The problem isn't the guns themselves- it's a lack of proper gun safety protocol.
Just like any tool/vehicle- if someone doesn't know how to use it properly, someone's gonna get hurt.
I don't see any motion to ban cars or circular saws, though.

                        Nice DE. Planning to try to get a weapon in the future. Most likely something simple like a Glock or an AR-15 if the ban gets decline.

Guns are a big thing in American and I grew up shooting them with my Dad for sport and hunting, plus there are a lot of historical firearms that are fun to shoot, so yeah I think its a culture thing.

Shooting can be really fun but it is dangerous and can kill you, so safety is the most important thing when you do it. If practiced safely its just like any other sport just like you say.

Quite a big difference between someone getting hurt in football and someone getting hurt by an accidental discharge, and lets be honest a football hasn't killed many people. You can compare all of the most extreme sports in the world and you still wont come close to accidental deaths involving firearms. Cars weren't designed to harm others, nor were circular saws. Guns are tools people fool themselves into thinking they can remove the element of danger from. Guns were invented to harm/kill other living things, I am not some pacifist who doesn't believe violence is necessary at times but I understand their purpose and anyone that wants to lie to themselves about why they exist can do so far away from me.

And here I was cauterizing small cuts with the escape gas of my Colt Navy.
Silly me.
