We may have done a version of this one before, but I don't recall it. 

For purposes of the poll only consider functional weapons.  Use common sense here--if it's a family heirloom like your great-great-great-great grandfathers shotgun and hasn't been fired in recent memory, don't consider it functional even if it is in theory.

No. The King provides me with firearms when I need them.

I don't own one any more, but I do have a shotgun licence for shooting muskets at historical re-enactments.

Voted no.

I almost took possession of my Grandfather's old hunting rifles but in the end I just let my Dad keep them.  I still might take them at some point to preserve some family history as my Grandfather made is living as a young man as a trapper.

You can always borrow one if you know someone.  I decided not to buy one, since I can always just use my dad's, or one of my uncle's deer rifles.

I have a friend who has two dozen guns who would let me borrow one. If I asked nicely, he might even give me one. But until I have someone who's also willing to teach me to how to hunt, too, what's the point?

No, but I've always meant to buy an AR-15 or similar and train on it for when the civil war comes.  They're just expensive.
