I do not own a gun, however since Ohio passed a law allowing conceal/carry, I have thought about taking the classes and taking the tests necessary in getting a permit to participate. If I bought one, I think I'd go with a Glock 17 or the Walther PPK (I believe its still in production).
The only "real" weapons I have are from a recent halloween costume I put together. 1. A wooden bokken roughly 3-4 feet long and 2. 3 steel bo-shuriken. The shuriken could imflict some major damage to a person thrown properly, but the bokken would just hurt to get hit with.
