Won't the Ammo sitting in there erode...or go bad..or something?

How often should I get this thing cleaned? And how long does ammo last? I have it sitting in the box, in my closet.

Thanks for any advice.

Please do yourself a favor. If you are going to keep a deadly weapon for home defense, familiarize yourself with it completely! This means take a course, fire it regularly to insure your ability to hit what you want and miss what you daren't. Then learn to strip and clean it yourself. To purchase this weapon and just set it in a closet with a box of shells is to invite disaster.

I find it very strange that an animal nut like you protest against hunting, yet condone the systematic industrialized slaughter of domesticated animals.

It's the best we can do in a meat lovin overcrowded world

OK, walks back..........

Yes we can.
Again, just do a little research for your own good. And make sure its from multiple sources, not just the Greenpeace propaganda pages. Most of the harvesting of these natural resources is strictly regulated and designed to either maintain, or promote the species that's being harvested.

Strange MT... I was wondering this very same thing. I wonder it every time I see a rhetoric vs rhetoric "debate".

I have a picture of a woman with a tattoo that says something similar to that, but alas I cannot post it here for fear of banishment.

I hate to admit it, but I really wasn't into sheep until I started reading the BB. I'd even say that you guys were a bit weird about them. I totaly get it now.

Bug,

Do you SERIOUSLY believe that it is more ethical to eat farm-raised beef that is slaughtered for your culinary enjoyment by someone else than it is to eat venison that you have harvested yourself?

Can you explain to me what is evil about hunting? Does it break any laws of nature? Like it or not, mankind IS a part of nature. We have undoubtedly had an impact on the natural world but the alternative is renouncing all civilized forms of life, big cities, and technological achievement and returning to a lifestyle where we all live in grass huts and wear fig leaves.

Animals slaughter each other every day and have done so since the emergence of the first protozoa. I have seen coyotes and fox and hawks and dogs and cats slaughter their prey and, believe me, they were all immensely pleased with themselves. Enjoying the success of a stalk and a kill seems to be "natural." To say that man should not enjoy the hunt is to render moral judgement on a natural urge that developed in a largely amoral system.

I think modern urban life has severed the ties to the natural world that our ancestors enjoyed. While our ancestors weren't "enlightened" enough to understand the impact of their actions on the natural world they would have found modern notions about wildlife and nature to be childish.
