Great time to explain to the brits the real reason for having guns in this country.

Note, brits can get shotguns.

If you are a farmer or rancher. They give this exception so the farmer or rancher can kill vermin on their land. Hunters also but the restrictions on such are numerous. I lived in England years ago and was an avid shooter here in the USA. I wanted to just do target shooting in England. My next door neighbor was a cop. I asked him what I needed to do? He said, "you must join a shooting club." That is expensive. Once in the shooting club you will apply for a permit to buy the firearm. That is expensive. If approved you will be allowed to buy the firearm and ammunition, which in England is much more expensive than the USA. You can not have the firearm in your home. It will be kept at the shooting club under lock and key. I said to him, "it is not worth the trouble and expense." He said, "that is the idea."
