My experience with these folks usually reveals that they think a pump shotgun or two for bird hunting, or a bolt action deer rifle, is OK, but that's about it. Often they are hunters themselves. They don't like the idea of a person having many guns, or things like ARs or high-cap magazines. Buying ammo in 1000-round case lots is scary to them, since even a fairly active quail hunter sees no need for that quantity of ammo and thus suspicion arises that someone would want so many rounds. The comment frequently seems to be "But who needs a 30-round magazine to hunt deer?". The idea of carrying or using a handgun to defend themselves or others does not enter their world and they don't want it to -- I think they genuinely cannot fathom that a person would be willing to carry a gun for protection, at least outside the home, and so a person who does want to do that is not understood and is in some manner feared. That old line, "common-sense gun control", comes up frequently. I sometimes try to respond with the question, "What step do you advocate that would actually STOP criminal gun use, as opposed to just making it more illegal?" I never can get a "moderate" answer to that one (the "hard care" anti-gunner will advocate banning sales, or even confiscation, but not the "moderate" who professes a belief in the 2d amendment so we can hunt birds), or to the question of exactly how many and what kind of gun non-police should be allowed to have, and who would make the decision.
