Nope. I kill paper. I've used the occasional BB to dispatch or disuade birds from roosting next to my bedroom, but that was 20 years ago.

I do NOT conceal carry, though I've dabbled w/ the idea.

I did not need my weapon in military service, fortunately.

While I subscripe to the artfully described "condom principle," I'm not allowed to carry a firearm onto a base, which pretty much means there's no point in carrying one 75% of the time.
