I inherited some interesting (and valuable) antique guns from my grandfather, including a Colt 38-40 (38 caliber, 40 grains of black powder) military revolver and a 30-40 Krag-Jurgensen Spanish American war rifle. Both are pre-1900. I fire both of them occasionally and really enjoy owning and showing them off. Anybody trying to take them away from me would put both of us in an interesting (and noisy) situation.
This morning I watched some outraged "outlaw all guns" pain-in-the-tail telling the world that anybody can walk into a gun show and buy a handgun without undergoing any background check at all.
BULL COOKIES! I have bought only one gun at a show (a new stainless 44 caliber revolver). I then had to wait three weeks while they made sure I was a really nice boy. Then I had to drive about 40 miles to a dealer to pick it up. I don't mind. I'm glad that they take those precautions.
You know ..... I'd bet that most of us who enjoy this website could, using some common hand tools, go into his/her shop and make a crude firearm capable of shooting the hell out of somebody. With a lathe and a mill they could probably crank out a very presentable one.
I,too am happy that our noble Supreme Court finally did something right.

I've owned a couple of 30/40 Krags. Probably my favorite rifle of all time. As far as home protection, I don't think anything compares to a 12 ga. shotgun. Every criminal on the planet knows the sound of a round being ratcheted into the chamber on a pump.
