Frank, are you saying you'd keep your Excals or give 'em up?

Myself I'd keep my firearms.
I can hunt a greater variety of game with my firearms and they would be more effective if I ever had to protect against an intruder....but that's just me. :)

I'd have to keep the rifles . . .hunters are the local military. Never give up your firearms. Of course, they would have to take my firearms away in order to get to my Excals.

I like to think that if the government came into my home without my permission and told me to choose, I'd shoot the government. I probably wouldn't, but I'd like to think that I'd have the balls to stand up for my rights.

Love my xbow but I think I'd keep my rifles too. At this point I want to fill my tags and my rifle is my best option for that. If it was about more challenge and the linger season then I'd keep my Excal. I don't think I know what my answer anymore!!

Think I would keep my guns . There are a few that mean something to me . :)
My bows are just a tool like my 870 .
