Guns ???? Please leave them to professionals that can handle the adrenaline surge when your pointing it at a real person
There are already a couple thousand well-trained and legal gun owners who belong to the Villages Straight Shooters Club ( Home ) and lots of people, including me, who train regularly at Shooters World. ( Indoor Shooting Range & Gun Store | Shooters World The Villages )

Many are retired military or law enforcement.

Bottom line: we have many living here who are qualified, and willing to serve if so asked and deputized.
