It's always better to have a gun and not need it than need a gun and not have it !

why not a musk deer?

though the pic in vikram's post could be of a chinese water deer,
what (in the pic) can discriminate between the two?
the skulls look the same to the untraine eye. there are no size markers

there is even a small difference between the skull of a musk and water deer. musk deer has a different placement and a little more curved tusks than that of the one showed by vikram.

It's 3015 and you're Arthur reborn in Pink tights armed to teeth with a Plastic BB gun named Nocaliber.

Jeff Cooper advocated four basic rules of gun safety:
1) All guns are always loaded. Even if they are not, treat them as if they are.
2) Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
3) Keep your finger off the trigger till your sights are on the target.
4) Identify your target, and what is behind it.
