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.
