My, point, PAR, is that I would trust someone with that many guns to be acutely aware of safety.

And my point is that the number of guns owned is no proof of safety - it's more proof of the size of one's wallet. And the photo depicted an inherently unsafe activity. (Yes, two of them had their index fingers straight, which shows they have at least had one safety lesson, but they obviously need a few more)

Ever been in a BB gun fight? Sure teaches you a lot, especially when you lose.

Ever had an 'unloaded' gun pointed at your gut? It'll teach you more about gun safety than you'll ever learn from owning a BB gun. And some of the things that it will teach you is that guns are not toys, guns and practical jokes don't mix, and that you can't really tell if a revolver is loaded or not when you are staring down the barrel.

If you want to play games, get a paintball gun and the related safety equipment, and have at it.
