   My friends are all cops or work for the government...One took me shooting the other day trained me on saftey and it's terminal...I love knives don't get me wrong but the adrenaline rush I got shooting my friend's Glock 23 was amazing...since I won't ever carry a gun and live in a very "special" state that makes carrying a gun a no no legally...I want one for target shooting only. 

   You can just have a gun in your home or take it to an approved range unloaded and locked in a lockbox or trigger lock on it. Only the criminals get to carry because they buy all there stuff from the state next door that has lax gun laws! 

   I am torn between using a gun for sport shooting targets with my friends or just not even getting one because my state laws are very very very strict...let's just say the first letter of my state comes after M...and there is an MTV show on right now about are shores! It is sad when we as American's only have the right to bare arms, kind of, sort of not really. I am emotionally stable, have a good job, and find dangerous things to be also good tools, not weapons.

   Personally,.. I would definitely get one. Laws in your state may change for the better, or they may change for the worse,.. but in any case I would buy one in case they change for the worse. 

   You could get a pistol that serves the sporting element (such as my Glock 35), but yet is great for home protection. I am a NRA Life Member and would encourage any responsible adult to buy a gun(s) and exercise your 2nd amendment right, even if you live in a gun un-friendly state. Hell I live in California. I believe that citizens should arm themselves so that the only people that have guns aren't just the government and criminals that don't follow state guns laws.

   There are plenty of good hand guns out there that will serve both the sport and home defense purpose. There are a lot of great 1911 models out there, Glock makes great guns, Springfield Armory, Kimber, and so on.

   GET YOUR PERMIT!!! Don't let them railroad you into thinking it's too difficult and not worth it. Imagine if everybody applied for their permit the state this country would be in. A loud and clear message on how we feel about our 2nd ammendment rights!!!

   I agree to get a gun of your choice.  Your post doesn't seem to ask if you should buy a gun or get a CCW permit.  I would say buy one and then apply for the permit.  You'll be really happy to own a nice pistol (or revolver) for home defense or for conceal carry if you get your permit.

   American hunters, gun owners are the largest potential Army in the world.  The Constitution gives us the right to bear arms and to overthrow any government that is tyrannical and oppresses the citzens of our great country.  Why do you think the anti-gun nut jobs, chiefly ultra-liberal types want to disarm us?  They're mostly politicians!
