I don't think animals are aware of concepts like death or nutrition yet you say you 'kill' an animal and that its meat is 'nutritious' none the less. The object does not have to comprehend the terms used with reference to it or else we would not call a hammer a tool since nails do not understand what 'work' means.

Merriam Webster defines the noun 'weapon' as:

"something (as a club, knife, or gun) used to injure, defeat, or destroy"

That applies as much to animals as to humans.

And no, I don't believe that killing animals is murder. Did I imply as such?
Okay so the comparison i made was poor, and i think we'll have to agree to disagree. :run:

As far as i'm concerned i have no lawful offensive or defensive (because i associate these uses with humans only) reason to possess any of my firearms, ergo they are not weapons.

Personally i think referring to them as such, in this country, is dangerous and fuels the anti's, but thats just my opinion.

Transmission ends.

' Pisol, used by experts, banned by perverts'
CLASSIC

Whatever you call them, weapons, guns, firearms, bangsticks, gats (does anyone REALLY say that nowdays) the antis don't care a jot - THEY know what's best for YOU.


Rob why single out revolvers, perfectly good for target shooting...and in the USA larger caliber pistols (revolvers) are used for hunting...rightly or wrongly..

The Glock is a 10mm. Not sure about the 1911 but I assume it's a .45, could be 10mm or something more exotic though.
