I so envy all of you.... my country's gun laws are designed to make sure that people cannot defend themselves
.
You cannot import a weapon, whatsoever..
Getting a license... it is easier to get rid of promotional calls from banks than to get a license..
procedure >> apply, fill 100's of forms, get a meeting with SP or something.... means you have to *compensate* someone for their time, that is after you know right people, else forget it.
after all this is done, you have to pay many times the amount you pay for a top-end weapon for a crappy 19 century handgun, which does not look as if it can be fired without blowing your hand off.
if you had to ever use the gun, expect to visit the court for 10 years at the minimum, 40 years old lawsuits are not uncommon.
no. of registered guns in country >6,300,000
actual number of guns estimated to be >> 40,000,000.. nice !!
some time back the big-bastards decided that it would be a good idea to ban air-guns
somehow it got pulled back after a year.
