I guess this camera is a gun now also.

Well let you decide. So you going to also sidestep the gun post too??? Maybe a liberal arts school like berea would be better for you??

OK lets go the way you want and once again I will school you....you say these things are guns because they have the name gun in their name....end of story. With this same logic we have a crossBOW that has the name BOW in it so it must be a bow right.....your own logic so you must agree.

I mostly referr to them as arrowguns for the obvious reasons. Well, because they belong in gun season. So when you got shot with a paintgun, do you really think you got hit by a bullet????? I am not seeing you as a teacher, possibly the creepy janitor.

At least consider community college.

cross·bow (krôsb, krs-)

A devise resembling a firearm. Interesting. Kinda like a gunstock, and a trigger assembly with a gun scope or gun laser

But those are just details

Yea, I don't like like that one so much. Doesn't accurately depict it. Most like a gun.

You call them arrow guns to try a justify keeping them out of bow season. I see you are not one to get off topic... but I think we are talking about xbows, guns, and bows, as it relates to deer hunting. Lets not be childish and go down your path.

So you want to build a crossbow now....and I guess you will want to hunt with it too. Hmmmm.... sounds like you are coming around. Be sure to tell me about those 90 yard shots you will make with it.

Yea, I want to build alot of things. A sea kayak too. But doesn't mean I plan on crossing an ocean. No I highly doubt I would hunt with a yew prod arrowgun. I have dozens up dozens of guns. Load thousands upon thousands of rounds of ammo. Shoot longrange, doesn't mean I would hunt longrange.

So lets go back to your post where you didn't know what a gun was.

If I took a nailgun, and put a nail in your knee, would you really think you got shot with a bullet???

Ok, you don't want a formal education, at least consider online classes. You can't be the creepy janitor forever.
