England is not gun free. Hunting rifles are permitted.

#1 U.S.A. with 112,6 guns per 100 people.
#4 Switzerland 45.7
#9 Sweden 31.6

Most handguns were banned in 1997. You have to have a “valid reason” to own a gun in the UK. “Fox Hunting” England’s ancient sport has been outlawed for years, while it still is practiced in France.

We still have work to do. That should be 300 guns per 100 people (pistol, rifle, shotgun per person).

Yes, you have to show why you want a gun and apply for a certificate.

You’re the one that wrote ENGLAND is a GUN FREE ZONE. The simple truth as you proved yourself...it is not.

You have to have a “valid reason” to own a gun in the UK.

The same to carry in New Jersey, but unless you're "connected" the reason is never valid enough.
