<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MIGuy, post: 8110769, member: 116145&quot;]Goodness gracious, I enjoy target shooting and have a Remington 870 with a deer slug and bird barrel for hunting, but I keep it locked in a friends garage in his gun safe.&nbsp; The statistics on the danger of having a gun in the house aren&#039;t a joke, I suppose now that my kids are out of the house I could get a gun safe for here, but for security I have a phone that can dial 911, a dog that sounds scary and doesn&#039;t like strangers (but she&#039;s a sweety), and good insurance.&nbsp; I&#039;m not going to lose a life or take a life over mere property.&nbsp; It seems unnecessary and there&#039;s too much risk for me.&nbsp; One of my friends has quite a gun collection, he and his wife both go to the range, and he was still keeping a loaded pistol in his bedside drawer after his teenage grandson moved in (mom is having problems) until I talked to him at length about it on a number of occasions.&nbsp; He gets too much bad info from Facebook.&nbsp; Lol, I think this thread went a bit off the rails.&nbsp; I don&#039;t think gold is a particularly good hedge against inflation, but it&#039;s something - plus many gold coins are beautiful and historically interesting.&nbsp; I wish I had a &quot;gold&quot; collectors budget.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
