    I agree with Leap that you're never going to eliminate guns, but handguns are pretty much designed with 1 purpose and its not target practice.
    Does anyone really need a Lamborghini or an H2? There is nothing more impotent than the "really need" argument.

    In any case, these big bores are designed for one purpose, and it's hunting. They really aren't used much if at all in crimes because they're expensive, heavy, hard to handle and relatively difficult to conceal. But I know people who have used Desert Eagles and large-caliber revolvers for deer hunting. And some are used for even larger game hunting, as well as for protection from large predators in very wild places.

    If you have a problem with handguns, you're wasting your time worrying about the big bore guns. It's the cheap little .25 cal plinkers that are easily concealed and have the one purpose that you're implying. And I own a couple of this kind, because they're easy to conceal for self-defense purposes. They're not only used by criminals.
