what do (hand)gun owners want?

[cortez kid]

1. I want cheaper factory ammo.
2. I want politicians to stay out of my business
3. I want strict enforcement of the stupid laws already forced down our throats without enacting new ones "for the children".
4. I want to be treated as an enthusiast, not a money carrier for the used car/gun dealer to fleese. Talk to me about my hobby, dont talk at me like I was an inconvenience. Its my interest that keeps the dealer in business not the other way around.
5. I want the world to treat us as we are. Individuals that beleive in Constitutional rights. That are good citizens of a morally comprimised society. That use our hobby as a release from the everyday grind. That are for the most part, fine, upstanding, considerate and good people
6. Did I say cheaper factory ammo?
good shootin

Education

How about Gun Ed like Drivers' Ed in school?

 

[Sharps Shooter]

I want people with gun phobias to leave gun enthusiasts the h*** alone! Spiders give me the creeps, but I don't go around telling other people they shouldn't be able to have a pet tarantula if that's what they want. An even better example is my Dad's fear of heights. Because of Dad's phobia, he can't even watch a show about rock climbing or mountaineering on TV. And unlike guns, rock climbing and mountaineering are dangerous by their very nature. Yet Dad would never tell anyone else they shouldn't be allowed to climb.

Second, I like to see more pistols chambered for the 10mm. More 1911s in 10mm would be my first choice, but I'd settle for a Browning HP.

I want the term "inalienable" to be thoroughly understood and respected by one and all. I want a large bore (.45+) handgun produced in a more generally usable barrel length (5"-6").

Well, *this* gun owner wants all the stupid gun laws repealed.

#1 End to import bans. If it can be sold here legally, it should be importable

#2 Cheap range

#3 Someone in Russia to dig up the old 7.62 Nagant cartridge equipment and start making that caliber cheaply.

#4 Safety equipment, such as gun safes, to be either tax free or low-tax. It's for the children.

#5 For the state of MN to correct the craniorectal inversion that denies me CC permit

 

[Bullet]

#1 - I want to win the lottery.

#2 - I want shopping carts at the next gun show or maybe a forklift.

The right as a human being and a responsible citizen of the United States of America to be able to defend myself (national CCW). Without fear of reprisal (such as civil money oriented lawsuits) if upon simple investigation it is ruled self-defense.

A media that can be held legally reponsible for their content. Legally includes criminal charges should their content not contain unbiased facts. The media should not be allowed (legally) to be a powerful multi-media force of the left wing used to SHAPE opinion. Reporting should be factual, unbiased, and accurate. Failure to do so should result in criminal charges with a penalty that includes prison terms.

As noted by others, at least temporarily remove that blind fold of double standards. The politicians and so called "shakers and movers" (which includes most of the media as well) have lived in a enviroment of privelage. They are have no idea in most cases of what life is like for many people in the United States. No idea whatsover. Perhaps, in this spirit, make it a legal requirement that anyone seeking a political office at the Federal level (including Judges) to have served at least 1 term in the United States Armed Forces.

Better taining for police officers at all levels. It has been my experience that this lack of professional training has resulted in an enviroment where many police oficers do not know where their legal authority begins and where it ends. This is not a police state.

No, but I'll video tape it if you do it while wearing a Mall Ninja outfit and a Molon Labe t-shirt

We could charge membership to the website and I bet everyone of the 65 million gun owners in America would pay $10 to see it.
