The UK's Finest Independent Forum for Shooters and Gun Owners. Est 2010.

From the nra website...

We welcome the thrust of the Home Secretary‘s recent statement, particularly " The UK has some of the toughest firearms laws in the world. The sorts of weaponry used in the attacks in Paris in January, and those that appear to have been used last Friday, are not readily available in the UK. We must therefore focus on tackling firearms entering and moving throughout the EU, and ensuring that we have the right capabilities at the UK border to detect firearms being smuggled in - I will press the need for greater information sharing, passenger name records, and action on firearms. In the UK we have seen tough legislation work and so we want to see action taken to make a difference to the availability of firearms in Europe, particularly assault rifles."

In the UK we have seen tough legislation work and so we want to see action taken to make a difference to the availability of firearms in Europe, particularly assault rifles.

As if legislation will make any difference to the availability of the assault rifles used by the terrorists
They are assault rifles,
they are full-auto,
they are Cat A classified & already banned in Europe,
they are illegal but they were available & used in Paris the same way that murder is illegal but was committed.

Please go ahead and fight trafficking of illegal weapons, I am all in favour, but civilian semi-auto have nothing to do with it - Of course the NRA may as well support a ban on 2CVs and claim it will reduce Formula 1's deaths ...

Who on earth is the NRA retarded that has written their comment and used that quote ???




BTW everybody can clearly see how In the UK we have seen tough legislation work ...

F*cking idiot !!

I'd rather stay in and fight to change the EU than abandon our closest neighbours.

I wish it were the case that bans happened because the community didn't do enough but it wasn't the reason.

All shooters combined, licensed and casual, don't add up to a hill of beans in this country.

I've signed and written the letters anyway.

Well, I am all for leaving the EU and spending our EU money on a fleet of super tugs to tow the UK away from Europe, fanciful idea perhaps, but just as based in "fact" as banning legally held firearms to Stop terrorists!

So the NRA believes that the draconian, knee jerk legislation foisted upon us works? The destruction of the sport, the confiscation of private property and the folding of many businesses has all been worth it...

Same old, same old from the Surrey "faithful"....

Bloody charlatans.

Here Here, Simon, well put

I think the point is, that may has said we have adequate firearms laws in place here and we won't be adopting anything new as we're skint....

Usual NRA hater stuff from here then.

When will these muppets realise that `laws only affect law abiding people`
