Reasons You Should Own A Gun | Find Guns for Sale Online

In the United States, we have the Constitutionally protected right to keep and bear arms. We hear a lot of dissent on the second amendment’s meaning, those against guns say the founders only meant guns for the militia. Given the choice, they would likely put an end to any guns for sale.

This blog isn’t about the political cloud of gun control, and you can read all you need to know to support your rights to own guns in the Federalist Papers.

This blog is about why you should have a gun. Let’s begin with the most obvious, and the most common reason for people who have never had guns before to purchase their first guns for sale.

Self-defense

Everyone has the right to protect their life, and apparently a large number of people agree. The evidence is in the shortage of ammo and guns for sale, as well as the numbers being sold.

Our Constitution ensures us the right of self-defense. If you reach for a pan handle and it is hot you draw your hand away from it. That’s a natural reaction and purely common sense. So is defending yourself against someone who wants to kill you. Self-defense alone is reason enough to own a gun.

Assuming you have the opportunity to call the police, you simply can’t count on them being there in time. Especially not with the budget cuts most law enforcement have been forced to deal with for the past few years. Own a gun, train with it and don’t be a victim.

Protection Against Tyranny

Tyranny is the reason for the second amendment. Tyranny was the reason for the Revolution. Read the Federalist Papers numbers 28, 29 and 46 if you have any doubts at all of the founders intentions for the second amendment. The Supreme Court and federal judges keep a copy on their desk to help them understand Constitutional cases, so yes, it is Constitutional law.

Protection Against the Invasion by a Foreign Nation

Our guns may be the only thing preventing an invasion by enemies of our country. Even if enemy troops conquered our military, there is an estimated 300 million guns in the U.S., or about one gun per person. It will definitely give them something to think about before they attempt occupation.

Small groups of guerilla styled citizens could put a world of hurt on occupied enemy forces. Think about that the next time you shop guns for sale, and are debating what type of gun to buy.

Recreation

There are a number of activities that involve firearms. Hunting, clay, trap and skeet, and the competition match. A large number of people enjoy going to the range and punching holes in targets. If you are shopping for a recreational firearm, we have guns for sale online for any and all activities.

Hunters form a large portion of armed Americans, and as different game requires different guns, hunters typically own several firearms.

Target shooting is a popular sport, and can be a means of building self esteem, concentration and patience. It is very satisfying to see shots place where you want them to go. Competition matches can take it a little further and create dedication and inner strength. The dedication to practice as much as it takes for your team to win, and inner strength to work for it until it is achieved.

Guns also give a young person a goal to shoot for (pardon the pun). Those who love target practice will work harder to display the responsible behavior that will earn them the right to shoot. When they push the limits of rules, being grounded from shooting is a way to encourage them to obey the rules.

My youngest spent a year grounded from his BB gun for shooting lunch box juice cartons on the window sill (screen removed) shooting from the inside of his bedroom. After the year was up, we went over the rules and safety again. He never killed any more boxed juices and always followed the rules and precautions. All the rules, not just those involving guns.

When he was older and using a .22 rifle, we had target shoots in the back yard once a week and always capped it off with a trip to the theater, or a favorite restaurant. It was good times that he remembers to this day, even though he is 29 now. We still punch some targets together now and then.

There are dozens of reasons for owning a gun, these are the most common reasons. With gun ownership comes the duty of responsibility and gun safety. If you’ve never owned a gun before, be fully informed of both. Take classes beyond those required for a permit, you will be a better shot, a better prepared shooter, and a more responsible gun owner. By doing so, you also help to keep the second amendment intact.

Guided Bullets, Rescue Robots, and Force Fields | And Guns for Sale

This information is publicly available. Refer to for further information on Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) research. These weapons are not available to the civilian population. The advancements in military weaponry serve to underscore how far apart military weapons are growing from the guns for sale available to civilians. DARPA’s research is often the subject of what used to be only science fiction.

Supporters of gun control often say civilians shouldn’t be allowed to have “military guns”. We know we don’t and are aware of the differences. There is even less comparison of the up and coming “smart gun technology” of military guns and current civilian guns for sale. Our enemies may not respect us, but by gosh, before it is over they will sure respect our military’s new weapons.

Extreme Accuracy Tasked Ordnance (EXACTO) Military snipers are often faced with difficult tasks and extreme environmental challenges. Snipers need to be accurate and able to connect with a moving target. For snipers, each shot fired that doesn’t take out the mark is a risk, a risk to himself and his fellow soldiers. Soldiers have access to great guns, but a switch that enables them to be automatic is one of the main differences between the guns of the military and the guns for sale available to civilians. That is all about to change.

The Extreme Accuracy Tasked Ordnance (EXACTO) system has the goal of allowing the sniper to fire at a greater distance, and to provide faster contact with the target. The EXACTO program’s goal is to develop the very first guided small-caliber bullet with a longer range and faster speed. The EXACTO .50 caliber BMG round and optical sighting technology provide significantly extended range, day or night, and is far superior to the most advanced current sniper systems. The system combines a bullet with a real-time guidance system to track and deliver the projectile to the target. The bullet is capable of adjusting its trajectory during flight to circumvent and correct for any interfering factors that would otherwise result in a missed target. I seriously doubt you will be finding this system in any civilian guns for sale. Phase II involved the development of the systems technology, while phase III will provide live-fire test and technology refinement to enhance and improve performance.

The Battlefield Optical Surveillance System The Battlefield Optical Surveillance System (BOSS) was developed for DARPA by the U.S. Air Force’s Phillips Laboratory, and is a HMMWV mounted laser surveillance and deterrence system. It was developed to detect and to deter hostiles. Its advanced sensors can detect a sniper, day or night before he has ever fired his weapon, and provides a high resolution image. Acoustical detection may be developed and added at a later time.

British Technology

The British military scientists are developing an electrical armor that uses electricity to repel rockets, shrapnel and other damage inducing projectiles. The technology utilizes super-capacitors into a vehicles armor where the energy of the super-capacitor is discharged onto the vehicle’s exterior metal plating when an incoming threat is detected by the vehicle. This discharge produces a powerful electromagnetic field, repelling incoming threats. Currently the “force field” only lasts for milliseconds, with the super-capacitor recharging in an unspecified amount of time.

The Iron Curtain

DARPA has also developed its own protection system called the “Iron Curtain”. It operates by detecting incoming fire and projectiles and destroying it just before it reaches the vehicle resulting in less damage than if the object had impacted.

DARPA Robotics

Robotics is another field DARPA is active in, from the development of the Legged Squad Support System (LS3) to carry heavy equipment for troops, to the development of robots to work in man made disaster for human extraction using tools (I like to call them rescue robots), to the expectation that within the next few decades robots will likely replace 25% of total soldiers.

DARPA researchers are active in many things, their website lists human-machine interfaces under the Biological Technologies Office among other projects. They are also working on prosthesis that will not only provide a functional limb for amputees. but a limb that can provide the amputee with the ability to “feel”. The military’s always had a hand in fueling advances in battle technologies to benefit our military, advance the objectives and provide advantages that not only save lives but win the war.

Guns for sale to the public have usually been based upon firearms that were first developed for the military. DARPA isn’t all about war, intelligence and bioscience technologies, but also rescue technology, medical advancements, national security and it is a good bet that if DARPA isn’t already developing technologies to deal with extinction event asteroids, that one day they – or someone like them will be. For all of our advances in medicine over the past 50 years, medical research remains underfunded and undermanned, leaving modern medicine not as progressive as science tends to be in other areas. There still remains a great deal that is unknown within the human body, leaving uncharted territories to be explored, much as there are in space. In the end, perhaps the greatest mysteries are as much of those lying within ourselves, as it is those lying outside of our world.

We hope you enjoyed this glimpse into the developing technologies for our military who risk their lives with every mission to maintain freedom and human rights around the world.
