Your selection of #2 is perfectly valid, though. I can understand that.

The gun offers the added value of shooting, which many people very much enjoy.

To be clear, I'm not talking about owning a gun in general (and keeping it in a garage, etc.). If you want to own guns for hunting, fun, or in case of some sort of all-out war, more power to you.

I'm specifically talking about having one in the house for self-defense, and I'd think most people don't really enjoy shooting one in their house (except possibly frazod).

I don't anyone would enjoy that, but if it came down to it I would rather be sad I shot some hood, than taking a dirt nap myself.

The only way to defend against a gun is with a gun in my mind...

Multiple people home invasions are rare but they do happen...
You have the most advantage to defend yourself in your own home because you know where everything is... We have a plan here in case the SHTF and my family knows what to do ... We talk about it alot... The main thing is to not shoot your own family...

Daughter is almost 17, do not yet trust her with a gun as she has not been properly trained..

When she turns 18 she will be trained properly by a pro... Maybe sooner..

She currently keeps this in her room and she will use it if needed.

I did not mean to infer enjoyment from shooting in your home. I meant the joy of taking the gun to the range (or country as I prefer) and practicing. Or maybe even competitions. Just because a firearm might be intended for home defense does not mean it has to just sit in the night stand until a home defense situation occurs.

I can assure you, it was not enjoyable.

Neither is eternally being the punchline of a Jeff Foxworthy joke.
