Don't have one, don't want one, don't need one (yet). I have a dislike of firearms in general. I would sooner buy a sword than a gun, however irrational that is.
If it's for home defense, a wooden bat is more practical than a sword. They're easier to use, can do just as much harm, and there is pretty much zero maintenance involved. Edit: Also, a good, real, sword costs anywhere from $500 to a couple grand. A bat is much, much cheaper.
I have a bat under my bed, on my side. No gun. I think I should get some pepper spray or something like that. With two small kids in the house, a gun is statistically a bad idea.
When there are more children in my life, whether my own or others', I will be looking for a means of securing the guns safely that doesn't prevent quick access. In the last three years, there has been one elementary school child that has spent perhaps 5 hours total in my living space, and never unsupervised. If anyone has input into a method of safe storage with quick access, that would be welcome.
Metal bats dent. One good hard hit and it's almost useless. A good quality wooden bat can withstand more punishment, which means it can deal out more as well. Just like guns though, if you use a bat for self defense, there are legal repercussions. So once again, know the laws.
