I am an old former police officer from the 1970's - I grew up on double action revolvers. I advocate gun ownership and practice - my wife and daughters and I will be at the local indoor range in 3.5 hours. The other side of the coin is that we feel that gun ownership is a fundamental right and there should be few, if any, laws, rules and regulations limiting ownership. I feel that a SA or striker fired semi in the hands of a trained individual is just as safe as a double action. Most new gun owners never become trained beyond what is required. Most will shoot their gun once or twice when new and then put it in a drawer ready for that burglar or zombie attack.

I do not advocate gun ownership to individuals I know will never take the time to practice.
