Pros and Cons of
Gun Ownership
So what’s the truth about guns?
Should everyone own one?
1.
Well, before we jump into the reasons why owning
a firearm is a smart idea, let’s look at some of the
downsides to gun ownership. Yes, the downsides.
It is our responsibility as responsible, law-abiding
gun owners to tell the truth about firearms; and the
truth is some people probably shouldn’t own them.
Guns are not for everyone!2.
While I 100% believe that a gun in the
hands of a responsible, trained gun
owner is a good thing, one in the hands
of some guy who has never bothered to
take a firearms safety course, or learn
how to use that firearm in a self-defense
situation is downright dangerous.
Having a gun DOES NOT Guarantee your safety.3.
When at the range, some loudmouths say something
like, “no one will ever get the drop on me,” or “I’d like
to see that guy break into my house.”
It’s usually the same guy who the range officer singles
out because he’s doing something that is a danger
to himself and everyone on the range.
Carrying a firearm without self-defense training
is a recipe for disaster.
4.
In close quarters combat, the chances of being able to
unholster your firearm and return fire on an attacker is
actually pretty slim. To be truly prepared, you need to be
able to take out an attacker without your gun – or at least
slow him down so you can draw your weapon.
Why everyone should
have a firearm:
The Pros of gun
ownership.
Now that we discussed the
important stuff – because when it
comes down to it preparedness is
all about training and having the
right knowledge – let’s look at
Because Gun Control
Laws will NEVER Stop a
Criminal from
committing
Gun Crimes.
While the government and the media
would like you to believe that banning
guns will somehow solve the world’s
problems, the truth is, criminals by their very
nature don’t follow the law.
Anti-gun laws do very little good when

person has for buying a firearm.
you’re staring down the barrel of some
psychopath’s gun.
Because Cops and Marines are really heavy!
6.
Now that we discussed the importaIt always amazes me how some people can be so
caviler with their family’s lives. In my opinion, if you have a family you should have and know
how to use a gun.
We often hear the anti-gun crowd say things like, “people don’t need firearms, that’s why
we have cops”. Well, those guys can get kind of heavy to carry around.
7.
Protecting yourself
and your family from home
invasions
When it comes to preparedness related
threats, a home invasion is one of the
most likely threats you will face. When it
comes to protecting yourself from that
threat, you are the only person who can
do something to stop the crime and put
down the threat.
8.
Because I have insurance
and a fire extinguisher.
Like most things, look at firearms from a
preparedness point of view. And from that
lens, owning a firearm is no different than
buying fire insurance or a fire extinguisher.
While I hope I never need to use either one
of them, when the time comes not having
those items could be catastrophic.
