I use a few for self defense, but the majority i just buy because i want it.
And the main reason i want it is because i don't have it.

It's a bad habit

I like guns and have more than I need. I end up from time to time selling off a few that don't get used to make room for some new ones. I have a few working guns and some that don't see much use out side the range. So I have guns for just about anything.

I wouldn't mind doing competition, but its just another hobby to spend money on right now.

I do have all the firearms needed.

Too bad the poll wasn't set up to allow multiple choices. The ultimate purpose of several of my guns is self defense, but a most of them get used for plinking and target practice.

I was looking for multiple choice also so I chose 'Other'
Don't hunt---use too, grew up in Wyoming
Don't competition shoot---use too SASS (Double R-Bar Regulators)

Being on the road it's down to self defense, plinking (when I can) and because I have to have them

I voted other because I generally use mine for work. I guess you could put that under self-defense. I don't tend to go shooting much like I did when I was younger, but I would like to. I especially want to get back into skeet shooting. Used to love doing that.

Sorry fellas I guess I should have set it up a little different.

I use mine for all the above except competition like a few others. I would shoot competition but like mentioned before, just another expensive hobby I'm not ready to get into yet.
