I don't have one and if I did I'd be dead. The only time I wanted one was when maybe having enough money to get one coincided with wanting to shoot myself in the head.

I don't understand wanting one for protection. Just the logistics of having a powerful weapon when you need it or easy access to it seem wildly impractical. Maybe retractable adamantium claws are practical in theory but where do you put a gun where you can easily get it in the unlikely event you need it while keeping it safe
