I have hunted, and own my late brother's and my late father's guns, along with my own for the purposes of hunting.

I was also employed as a FFer, and in order to climb thru the ranks of the dept., you have to work all aspects of Fire. That means working 3 years in the Office of the Fire Marshal, where we are "lawmen", and I had to learn how to handle a Glock. Thankfully I only had to pull it, but never fired it.
