Personally, I am not into guns. I would suspect not, but I am no expert on this. I just think that allowing guns to be sent through the mail helps folks who want to get guns without going through a background check, and probably will result in more people getting shot. That what guns are for, after all; Kurt Vonnegut wrote that a gun was a machine for putting holes in people.
