Well im not a huge weapons person so I wouldn't know.

But I don't think thats any reason to give a gun to a mentally unstable person.

Maybe there should be a law against it being

within a certain amount of years they may be able to own a gun.

But laws like that are useless, since they'll get a gun one way or another.

Though this arguement should probably be transferred to the 'Gun control" thread.
