Probably. I mean parts of Britain have banned knives so it probably won’t be long before you have to register yourself

Pretty much.

Hence why I support government funded gun safety classes. We could have them as part of school and bring back the Home Ecs class while where at it so people can figure out how to do taxes

I support this measure.

In Scotland you need to have a licence to own an air gun. I am not even joking.

I applied for a licence over a year ago and I still haven't heard anything back. I think that they have lost my application. I still have the air guns in my possession regardless (My ownership of them predates the introduction of the licence by a considerable margin). I'm not being held responsible for the incompetence of the Scottish Government. I have repeatedly tried inquiring about it, but it is like talking to a wall.

Oh you sweet summer child.

If my licence application form got chewed up and lost in the bureaucratic machinery in Edinburgh then that isn't my fault.

Maybe it got chucked into the memory hole, who knows?

:p

Any reason for that off-topic post? Telegrams are there for a reason.

Wheras, in Germany, you can't own a regular gun, but you can own anything that doesn't have the projectile inside the barrel.
