I've never fired a real gun. I would not mind going to a range to feel it, nor would I mind shooting at ranges for recreation. Various other target practice seems fine too. I don't trust myself to own one. I'm not suicidal, but I can be a bit reckless playing with dangerous stuff: fire, knives, swords. I've opened a quick release knife into my thigh to see if the safety mechanism worked(after testing successfully on cardboard) and I've cut a very safe part of my forearm as kinda a.... what's it feel like? experiment before while drunk.

I know the dangers and I seldom actually do that stuff(those were years apart), but seldom doesn't mean never. In all honesty I probably wouldn't hurt myself, but I don't feel like risking it yet.
