"North Wales Police and Crime Panel heard the area had 37,684 firearms and shotguns linked to just 12,354 licences.

It means one person could have "a small arsenal"

Sounds pretty normal around here.

Don?t laugh. That?s our future.

[Tarmy]

3 per household over there IS an arsenal. Now when they start posting how much ammo each license has, they are doomed.

[homelessdude]

And the next war that threatens them they will beg for arms from us. And not return them. Some of you may have to do a little research.

What do they define as firearms? I hear air guns are considered firearms and are restricted.

I think you are correct. Though it may be like Canada (again, this is from memory, so may be wrong) where velocity comes into play. Target air guns are largely exempt, but sporting (or hunting - higher velocity/energy in any case) airguns are considered firearms.

What did you expect? London, I believe (could be England in general, not sure), requires a license to carry anything that has a knife blade when in public areas.

[MrTokarev]

Crazy.

This isn’t even in response to some major incident, merely the statistics of ownership.

It really exposes the lie of “having nothing to hide.” These owners have done nothing wrong but it’s being proposed that they be punished just because the government knows what they own.

This is exactly why Americans are so hesitant to have any kind of registration scheme.

[Dan_Eastvale]

High velocity pellet guns?
And their absurd bin the blade public "feel good" campaign.

Even though stabbings go up.

[Buymoreguns]

I think the air gun limit is a total Foot pounds of energy, about a dozen FPE and it's regulated.

[sigfan91]

Are hammers regulated in UK? How about spanners?

If it saves just one life…

[Buymoreguns]

Knives, including kitchen knives are regulated now. See this https://www.gov.uk/buying-carrying-k...'good%20reason'

[CALI-gula]

California is not far behind and most Californians don't seem to mind.

A couple of years from now someone will post on some website in Czechoslovakia or the Ukraine " Lol @ the calis"


.

[prob]

I don't think any of us stuck in California should be laughing at anyone. Especially while under the rule of the tyrannical Newsom.

[Jeepergeo]

Those folks have bad teeth and even worse gun restrictions. And they drive on the wrong side.
