I would say a horse continues to be a money pit and then...dies. Nothing to show for money spent (other than photos). Horses are recreational comforts unless your using them to plow or barrel race or rodeo to make it pay for itself.
When you buy a gun, any gun, it is paid for and only increases in value. Guns are an investment in security and financial wealth (sorta). You will never go hungry owning a firearm.
Although I love horses and have had one in my life, I'll take a firearm any day.
