I'm sure it's a great hobby, and something to be passionate about but is it a necessity?
If I were to hunt, i'd learn to use a Bow... Keep the playing field a little more even then a shot from 100 yards away...

Why should my rights as a law-abiding citizen be fringed upon by what a criminal does?
Your post reeks of so much ignorance, its pathetic.
The whole personality of a criminal is to 'disobey' the law. No matter how many gun laws or bans you impose, nothing will stop him from acquiring a gun if he so chooses.
I agree with gun laws to a certain extend...I think all gun sales should be regulated, and everyone that buys a gun should be checked out to make sure he doesn't have a criminal record. But than again, no criminal with a rap sheet is going to go buy a gun at the local gun-shop if he knows they will check him out.
Also, if you own a handgun, and have a concealed carry permit, you should be required to have proper training for that handgun.
You can't just ban guns and think crime will go away. Especially in the US, where an open border with Mexico already makes it easier to bring illegal firearms into the country.
