As a minor, I don't own one yet, but at some point in the future, I almost definitely will. They're part of the family, and I've been told that an old breach loader dating back to the Revolution will likely end up being mine. I don't really plan on firing it ever, but depending on how my life goes, I figure I may buy one myself just to use at the range, or maybe for hunting. I wouldn't want self-defense to be my main motivation, but at the same time, I don't think I'd be opposed to using it for that.
