I've Got a Gun is the 1982 UK debut studio album by California hardcore punk band Channel 3, released by the prominent punk label No Future Records as a repackaged variant of their US debut, Fear of Life. Licenced from Posh Boy Records, the 12-track LP swaps out the tracks "Manzanar" and "I Wanna Know" from the American press in favour of the frantic title track and "Waiting in the Wings". Driven by Robbie Fields' production and Mike Magrann's razor-sharp hooks, the album balances the aggressive, high-velocity energy of early 80s Orange County hardcore with melodic, infectious mosh pit singalongs across anthems like "Catholic Boy" and "Wetspots"
