On a further note concerning gun control in the U.K.,why was Thomas Hamilton allowed by senior police officers to keep his guns even though he was kicked out of his gun club and local junior officers recommended that his permits be revoked and his guns confiscated? Why were most of the Dunblane inquiry files put under official lock and key for the next 100 years?
“what are the chances that gun control laws can choke off the firearms supply to bad guys in the U.S., a country with some 300m firearms in private hands? Exactly, precisely, none.”
BTW, there are a lot, which number is growing, of guns that are completely off the books. Google “80% lowers” to see an entire industry that is out there to allow individuals to manufacture their own firearms, without any paperwork needed (in most states). It isn’t expensive - you need a jig (which these companies sell, generally for $80 - $150, which can be used for 25 or so lowers) and either a router or a drill press (which can be obtained for well under $300), plus the aluminum “paperweights” themselves ($25 - $65, depending on various features). Build that (in a couple of hours, tops), and you now have the part of the gun (at least with AR-15s) that is considered to be a firearm under the law. FYI, they are available for AR-10s, Colt Gov’t Model .45s, Ruger 10/22s and Glocks. Good luck to the antis in regulating THIS.
So with that, the libtards want to confiscate guns in America???
One at a time?
e-bay

Sort of reminds me of the guy in “Hot Fuzz”.
Every time.
It isn’t ‘gun free’ in the UK. It is not even ‘legal gun free’.
Plenty of people there still have guns. Heavily regulated to be sure. But not disarmed completely.
