Thread: Bullets

I believe the projectile/ bullets question has been adequately answered so I’ll add this I have a firearms licence but I don’t have any firearms as I believe the police and the military have firearms. I have guns and rifles. I looked up firearms and it can been both but I’m sticking to my guns as they are not weapons.

So you have a rifle and gun licence? Sounds good. The police and military have weapons which they don't need a licence for. The big brother miltaries even have weapons of mass destruction which they also don't need a licence to own. It's a mixed up world; enough to keep a man awake at night trying figure it out.

Gun is derived from the Old English word, "gonne" which means a military/war contraption. Indeed the earliest handheld firearm was the handgonne. Maybe the only safe place word left is "musket"? (-;
