Weapons Depot???

The Weapons Depot, really? Those who know, know that only bad guys have and use "weapons.' Good guys have and use guns, knives and related accoutrements. Seriously, who comes up with these topic names? Certainly not subject savvy folks. How about just plain GUNS AND AMMO or G&A FORUM? Negative connotations when you start slinging around words like weapons.

I've always referred to my guns as "tools".

What does Webster say?

To me, a "gun" is a smooth bore weapon.

Military tought us "weapon", NRA uses "firearm". Was the hardest thing for me changing the terminolgy when I became an instructor because it was engrained in my brain from the Army!
