jafom77494	Posted Oct 14th, 2009 at 2:13PM Compact Handguns are Man killers (also typically junk). Handguns are Man killers. Assault Guns are Man killers. Shotguns are for game birds. Rifles are for game animals. In inexperienced hands they are all man killers. Peoples should have to be trained in their use just like a car or other dangerous machinery. I own them, use them and you can't take mine. Rated: +2Vote for this!
