Meat wasn't nearly as bad as it had been but now where near as good as it used to be. I could eat it but my top denture I think needs some work for fit. I go to the dentist on Thursday and will got some input about a fix then.
Don't be afraid of guns. If you remain afraid of them it will be hard to use one if needed. Be wary of an unloaded gun. Like Granny said respect is most important. Those are the ones that kill people. Always assume a gun is fully loaded and the safety is off. Never point any gun at anyone unless they are a lethal thread to you. I grew up with a bed room full of guns with ammo on my dresser. That's where my dad stored them. No gun safe. I got to shoot tin cans by the time they could hold the gun and me. Basically I got to look down the sights and pull the trigger. I love target shooting. I miss the days of shooting out on a private farm dirt road that was over a mile long. My elderly neighbor got me into it. He was older than I am now and he taught me how to reload empty brass and then we would take his table and sandbags back out to the farm where we could setup in the middle of the road with the targets a 100 yards away and try to get three holes in a one inch circle. Hollywood makes it look easy. It's not with plain hunting rifles. I would think you are looking for a handgun and not a rifle. Wife wants one too. She used to target shoot with me. We've never owned a handgun but it is time. Just remember all guns are loaded. Prove yourself wrong about that by looking in the chamber and never down the barrel.
