Naturally each one has his own opinnion, we were all made to be different.
This is an Ethnographic Arms and Armour Forum.
In the assumption that firearms are dislikeable because we have carried them far too much in the past, i personaly don't see any difference between them and edged weapons, as the purpose is or has been precisely the same ... just a question of time or context. Active firearms, same as active white arms, are forcingly and deeply comdemnable. One basic reason i see for contemplating old weapons, fire or edged being not different, is to remind us what we should hate to use, to stop man being the only species that hunts its own kind. Some other reasons woul be consumism and aesthetics, simple or mechanicaly animated. Its a question of taste.
With all respect.
