ah, that's more plausible. I thought you were talking about broadswords and shit.

But uh... why is it hard to believe that I have shot/can shoot a pistol? That's pretty common around here. :/ I've shot with eleven-year olds through 4-H. xD

hrm, this is also true. it's a cultural thing; in England, pretty much no-one ever has a gun unless they're a criminal or a farmer. I understand that in the US, they've got much more liberal gun laws. my apologies~

No, no. I've never even held a sword. I've held an Egyptian dagger, but...

Oh. I've never left the country other than an hour-long visit to Mexico, so I don't know anything about gun laws out of America. Oh, but I live next to a ton of farmers, too. xD

Living in London, I find this understandable. I know nothing about gun laws for the rest of Europe, and very little even about England's own gun laws.

Edit: As goldenquagsire says, in England pretty much no one has a gun unless they're a farmer or a criminal. And, you see, none of the criminals I know carry any guns, and my parents told me to keep away from farmers.

Mostly right-handed. I type mostly with my left hand and sometimes type one-handed (NOT LIKE THAT), though I then find backspacing to be awkward.

I switch hands pretty frequently for everything except writing, though.

[ typed this post with only the left hand then only the right ]

Those farmers are a seedy lot.

...I'm sorry.

I'm dominantly left handed. I'll spare you all the details.

I happen to know quite a few farmers who are very friendly and are completely gun-free. They're not all "GET OFF OF MY PROPERTY!!" maniacs. :(
Most have public pathways through their fields.

I'd say I was dominantly right. I can't write very fluently with my left hand. However, I tend to be left handed when using cutlery. I'm not fussy when it comes to unscrewing bottle caps and stuff either. I'm essentially ambidextrious when playing steelpan too...

As a child, I was left-handed. However, being in a small kindergarten, I noticed that all of my classmates used their right hand- and, I copied them, and I've acted like a righty most of the time.

I can write, use chopsticks, and use a mouse with both hands- though the right is more noticeably proficient. Maybe I should get back to training my left hand- I used to switch hands for taking notes in class when one hand got tired.
 
i'm right handed, but can type with both, but only throw a ball or do sports with my left, like archery.
 
I'm a righty, but I have to use my left hand for shooting because my right eye is lazy.
 
I'm ambidextrous, but originally right-handed. I learned how to use my left hand for most things after my right arm was broken in a swing accident when I was 9. I prefer writing with my right hand still, but can write with my left and do most other things with both hands.
 
I'm right handed, but I can use my left pretty well for some things, just not writing/drawing.
My dad is Ambidextrous though. He was right handed but for some reason his school teachers were convinced he was left handed and made him use his left hand, and now he uses both equally well.
 
I'm left handed. I use my right hand whenever I play guitar or golf (which is very rarely) and I control the computer mouse with my right.
I've attempted to write with my right hand, but it hurts and generally feels uncomfortable so I've given up trying to be ambidextrous :c
 
Mainly right handed. There are some things that I can do better with my left hand...but most of them are a bit...uh...private. =] Oh, and I can stir for longer with my left as well.
