Definitely get a rifle before a bed or couch or anything like that.

Some examples

Oh man that's twisted. That's perfectly timed to cut off Mosin Nagants.

I can own a crossbow, longbow or a trebuchet without a license. Why would I want a noisy muzzle loading antique?
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

If you get a crossbow, I am petitioning HM to remove your English citizenship.

Even I have a longbow.

I used to have a single handed crossbow with a 40lb draw. Neat little weapon, I wouldn't want one pointed at me.

I've wanted a Longbow ever since I read Thomas of Hookton. I'm determined to go on a course and make my own though. There are several weekend courses around but I just don't seem to find the time.

You might as well just purchase one. You can get one in America for a few hundred dollars that is pretty good. 40 lbs draw is not enough for anything but a toy, though. You need minimum 50 lbs to hunt small game here. Our ancestors wielded warbows with nearly 200 lbs draw weight.
