Some people hunt with large caliber handguns. They're a lot lighter and smaller, so easier to carry around in the wilderness, like when backpacking.
My dad has one for shooting poisonous snakes and killing pesky turtles in his pond.
How many reasons are required before handguns are valid? |
That is a non-typical use of a handgun. A rifle is far better suited for such a job. I can say that I use c-4 to fish with... but that does not mean that this is a good reason to allow the public to buy the stuff.
