This is my reply.
Hi Stu,
I had twelve firearms in SA up to the moment the SA1994 government told me that they want to take my licenses away. Up to that point none of my arms have been used for anything but hunting. So for 14 years I have had 4 pieces of personal arms that had no job. So I left them in the safe, or in my case under the bed and in the roof of my garage.
In 1997 a friend of mine left these shores for the
So while I was in
So as a result of that I carry an illegal Starr (one of those that were stolen. Ex my Dad) .22 pistol semi at all times that I am in SA, I hide this from my nearest and dearest.
In 1998 the Automatic gate to my residence got stuck because "somebody" put a 2 inch log across the track: I fired 2 shots into the night sky and heard the shits running away, then cleared the log and parked, safely inside the gate.

In the DRC I have an illegal Glock in .45 : As I enter this country from two points and do not have access to the Glock when I fly in from
I have two pieces in the UK: One that I pick up at entry, a 1956 Luger that I last fired at a range with 1940 ammo, and it worked fine, in 1997, but I have it available at all times.
The second piece is in
The rest of my "stolen" arms reside in

So to answer your question: 18 is not enough. Not even close.
My kids have had access to more than 69 open ( 4 families times 16 pieces and some more) family arms and they yet have to go and shoot anybody.
Listening to the Amercan media, though, I can go and gt my own pieces back at vastly reduced prices as I get closer to Mexico. Ole',
Bullshit

I will post your post and my answer on Keeskennis
And that : Triumph Street Triple : Makes me look old : You shit :
Damn, Kees; the more I read about you the more I'd like to tip a couple with you. If you ever had to leave your beloved Africa, you would fit in just fine here in the western US. |
I know I told GuyK yhat I would visit this year but life 101 got in the way. |
.... sweet.... you'd better drop by Tennessee..... |
I suppose a shotgun and a .22 rifle should be in every home. A good semi auto rifle of decent caliber to reach out with is surley nice. Pistols of various sizes depending on your own preferences and what you can reasonably conceal on your body frame seem reasonable to me as well. KK: MaXX wins this one, guns down "As many as you can afford is the right number. Any more would be too much.", just steals my heart, call me weak if you will, a man. |
