Well, it
is a sport. Target shooting can be as much fun as basketball and other games, and actually has a practical use (when are you going to use basketball skillz to save a life?).
As for myself I don't own anything larger than a pellet gun but that is mostly because I am 20 and still in school. My family has 2 shotguns (1 double barrel, 1 marine combat for home defense), 3 .22 rifles, and one pistol which was a gift to my father who directed the computer automation of the production line that made it. They have been used for varminting and target shooting, and never been fired in self defense (although they have been used as preventatives).
