I've actually never fired a gun my whole life - although I've been shot at twice (and hit once....uggg).

I agree with you Bill. If you're out in the middle of no-where Montana the gun laws should probably be different than for those in big cities. There are some laws that should be at the federal level I think -- for example there is no good reason for someone to own a semi-automatic AK-47 that holds a zillion bullets no matter where you live in the USA.
