How many days without a gun related crime

I figure I have gone around 11,781 days (since I first handled a gun at 8) without commiting a gun related crime. How long have you gone? Is it better than your driving record or any non firearm crimes you may have committed?

    I've got you beat, I figure at least 14,600 days since I first shot a gun (a .22 rifle).

    Do minor infractions of the PA game law count as gun related crimes ?? [This message has been edited by 7mm nut (edited 04-04-2002).]

    A bit over 20,000, but there were times when I was tempted.

    That's an interesting way to look at it. Makes on figure. I ca proudly claim 16,060 days. I remember some times I thought I did a dumb thing or two but NEVER commited a crime or violation.

    being the honest type that i am, i will say ive gone 60 years w/out being CAUGHT. we have obscure laws that make virtually everyone a criminal at one time or another.i dont mean i rob banks, just screw up once in a while. drive past a school on your way hunting (within 1000 feet)& youre an instant criminal. barto

    Maybe I should have set the perameters at knowingly or intentionally committing a criminal offense.7mm.... if it was a regulatory issue we'll give you a break.[This message has been edited by dakotashooter2 (edited 04-05-2002).]
