Having a pistol for home defence is not a legally accepted "Valid Reason". For the pistol shooters who do have pistols at home the guns must be in a locked and bolted down steel safe that renders the pistol useless if you home is violated.
If you had a loaded pistol next to your bed and were caught with it there then you would get hammered.
I said that only because Checkman is a law officer. It strikes me as unreal that Checkman is a lawman in another western society and yet the laws are so different that in Australia he would be in deep doo doo.
I'm not having a go at him. Its just an observation thats all.

EMPIRE 375,

Another observation or questions on my part..Does the goverment require thieves, robbers, murderers and such to have their handguns locked up also???

I say that in jest, but really, some laws, many of which are here in the US, have ruled out all common sense...

Take care
