    To answer the question, one uses his/her own belief system as the basis for the answer.

    If you are a Mormon, then your version of Heaven will differ from a Catholic, which will differ from a Baptist.

    Personally as a Protestant, I don't believe there will be guns in heaven.

    There will be no need to destroy anything, there will be no danger from anything. With the perfected bodies there will be no competitive issues as everyone would have perfect vision, and perfect hand eye coordination.

    The choice between shooting at targets that you are guaranteed to hit perfectly 100% of the time, or to spend time in the presence of the Creator of the Universe, I don't think anyone would choose punching holes in paper.

    or spread it with your big mouth.

      I've heard if suggested that the only man made things in heaven are scars (and I don't mean a 16 or 17). The scriptures seem to hint that

        And only certain specific scars.

          This.

          OP, You're making idols out of your guns. Your unhealthy emotional attachment (your words) to your guns is simply another way to describe idol worship. You might as well be worshiping a golden calf.

          Sorry if that sounds harsh, but the truth hurts. You're the one who said you were serious.

            Of course there will be guns in heaven.
            They will all have built in supressors and a full auto switch.

              There was war in heaven at one time was there not? What do you think they were fighting with? Cloud cannons fired by stardust?

                  Supposedly the archangels have swords...so why wouldn't there be guns of some type

                  But really I guess you could have them if you wanted them, they'd only work on targets and they wouldn't be able to hurt anyone except anyone trying to harm you I.e. The neighbors from downstairs, but supposedly by then that war will have been fought n won....

                      There will be guns in heaven because there won't be any Democrats around to take them away.

                        -Do you guys think when we die we can take a spiritual copy of our guns to heaven? I see no need for them there but out of all the things that I enjoy, I enjoy shooting the most.
                        -Do you think there will be ranges up in heaven? Will I need to wear ear and eye protection?
                        -Will we have magazine limits for people that go to heaven in California? W
                        -ill we ever need to clean our guns in heaven or only if you enjoy cleaning them?

                        BTW - this is not a serious thread, I don't mean to offend. Just things I think about from time to time...

                        No. If you're in heaven you will be worshipping the Lord.

                          "If the Army and the Navy ever look on Heaven's scenes,
                          They will find the streets are guarded by United States Marines."

                          So I'd say yes, there are guns in Heaven.
