I give up on that one. How many commited suicide with bush knives during the same time. The question is irrelevant. The same as yours.

End result's the same. Apparently being stabbed isn't as painful as one might think and neither is the pain associated with it (i.e a 'stabbing' pain) correct. I saw a documentary on it once and they interviewed surviours of stabbings and shootings and the stabbing victims said it was more like a dull, blunt, punch than 'stabbing' - can't recall what the gun-shot victims said though.
It's the FEAR quotient, Ant. Somebody shoots you, it's a done deal. Somebody pulls a knife out and starts slashing you up, well, go think on that one.
Well I suppose, assuming it's a one/clean shot deal. Either way I'd imagine most people would be keking it. And like I said, the outcome's the same in both scenarios so it doesn't really make much difference.

Well, how many? Why don't you look up the stats if you think it's relevant?

Of course not. This isn't about making people "better persons", it's about preventing the use of guns for causing harm.

Again: guns have a much larger attack range than knives and most other 'weapons', nobody will kill an entire classroom of students while standing in the doorway and yielding a knife, club or bow and arrow - no gun, less lethal power.
Someone who might get his gun and pull the trigger, would not necessarily use a knife or their bare hands if no gun was available - there is a distinctly different quality to being able to do harm with the motion of one finger, and from a (sometimes) safe distance.

Guns are offensive weapons.

Is it really that difficult to understand?

Pobly used what ever was the main weapon of the time, Bow and arrows, club, Rock on the end of a cord [mace] kids always make weapons for toys, just like most of us made play swords and spears.
Thats why most of us grew up fairly normal.
Seems tho that Krauts were not allowed to do those things.

I don't think either way has much bearing on the type of person you become.

The Colt 1911 certainly belongs on that list and is a real man's gun. I owned one. I would also include the Winchester Model 94 30-30, my first rifle and a classic. Should be in every collection.

Finally, a S&W model 57, classic 357 magnum dirty harry special would have to be in as well.

My cousin, who is a gun nut and has about any gun you can think of, he owns a construction company, heavy construction not building trades, ranch just for deer hunting, about a 50'twin diesel Chris Craft, condo in Guaymas and hilo so got the bucks to get it if he wants it, had the first mod. 29 i ever shot, 8 3/3 and I was a fair pistol shot then and busted stubby beer bottles at 100 yards, so I found one for sale as they were like chicken teeth them days but the one I got was 6', but did kill a couple of deer with it and shot it a lot and they do rock back but recoil never hurt me like it does some folks, Mod.66 S&W 357 6' is a good deer gun too, I had a 700 BDL 8mm rem mag, and thats a big gun, some said it was to much back up, but I didn't think so, my mdl. 70 300 win mag was a torture to shoot, buy the Ruger #1 338 win mag I had wasnt bad.
