“Not anti-gun.
Connery remember is ex-service and has of course used and handled guns therefore and knows what damage they can do.
Pro-gun responsibility Id say rather than anti-gun.”
I disagree; Connery did a voiceover in an ad for either Snowdrop or GCN urging the govt to ban .22 pistols in addition to the fullbore weapons (which they eventually did). So we have the totally pathetic situation (lets face it - in line with a lot of things)where British olympians have to train abroad in order to compete for their own country when in it. As to damage, these pistols given their large size & low power would be better off used as a club.
Fair enough.
I wasnt aware of said ad and am a bit disappointed that he lent his voice to such a kneejerk campaign.
I could have stomached the handgun/automatic weapon ban, bu the pistol ban was just stupid.
