Is there a patron saint of guns and ammunition? If there is, count me in.

there probably is

Apparently there is. :laughing0301:

"The Saint Gabriel Possenti Society was a U.S. organization promoting the public recognition of Gabriel and lobbying for his designation by the Vatican as the "patron saint of hand gunners". The society was founded by gun lobbyist John M. Snyder, who began his effort in 1987.[16]

According to the society, Gabriel's marksmanship and proficiency with handguns allegedly saved the village of Isola del Gran Sasso in 1860. This urban legend says that he scared away a band of 20 Garibaldi Red Shirts after shooting a lizard at a distance. Gabriel was reported to be in the later stages of tuberculosis at the time.[17][a]"

I just learned this year about St Gianna Molla, patroness of the unborn and the ProLife Movement, who died in childbirth to save her child's life. She turned down an abortion at the risk of her own life. I have been donating monthly to a maternity home in North Dakota which gives women the choice of saving their child's life over aborting their baby. They can move to the St Gianna and Pietro Molla Maternity home for at least a year to give birth and learn a lot of life skills that will help them raise healthy children and form healthy lives.
