I've shot guns quite a few times. It doesn't really make me feel powerful or give me an adrenaline rush. I'm actually fairly calm, which is how you should feel. The goal shouldn't be to feel a rush, but to practice a skill.

I have no issue with sport shooting or practicing at the range to improve at something, but the people who just own guns to say they own them are crazy. I think there should be a requirement to owning a firearm to have some level of competency with it so you don't do harm if you end up using it. You should also be required to store it safely, or at least have a place to store it safely and knowledge on how to do that.
