My Guns
Each of these firearms is a tool with a specific purpose. I would not have them otherwise. Better to have them and not need them than need them and not have them.
I pray to God that I never have to use them outside of the firing range.
Were all men angels and all of nature neither red in tooth nor claw, these would not be necessary. I look forward to that time.

Smith and Wesson 329PD .44 Magnum
|
I acquired this fine revolver strictly for backpacking. It is the lightest large handgun on the market, and can bring down any animal found in North America. I have no intention of becoming a meal for any wandering Grizzly bear.

Smith and Wesson .40 M&P
|
This semi-automatic was a gift. It is a bit large for Concealed Carry, but I do carry it with a specially designed side pack. This is my pistol of choice for self-defense practice. |

Smith and Wesson 642
|
This superlight .38 is my usual carry weapon. I also place it in my bike bag when bicycling. |

Romanian AK-47 WASR 10
This is the first rifle I have ever owned. It is not for hunting but for home perimeter defense. I well remember the LA Riots as well as the breakdown of public services and order that came in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. I cannot prevent such things. What I can do is prepare for them to the best of my ability. This AK is part of that preparation.
