No, John, I am not and never have been terrified of firearms. I'm not
particularly interested in shooting, but I have done a reasonable amount
of target shooting with friends and family. I have kept a gun in the
house, not one used for protection, but used for target shooting. I
don't do that any more because I'm just not that interested.

People who carry guns for "protection" (a common motive) are almost  by

Stranger how your posts change over the years. I specifically remember
you recounting how you "had shot a.22 a few times" in an attempt to
justify your knowledge of firearms, and now you kept one in the house?

Well, disregarding the question of whether Frankie is lying the
question is "what are the qualifications of his qualified testers?

If, for example a tester is, Oh say  Eddy Merckx, you might get a
radically different evaluation then that of one of his self appointed
expert friends.
