I think the police in general just have the attitude of "the fewer guns, the better". Some forces are better than others but I'd doubt any of them would bat an eyelid of all guns were reclassified Section 5 overnight.
Fascinating thread....I've always wondered about gun ownership overseas.
Would that happen to be first Sunday of the month?but referred them to the club where they have target shotgun once a month.
No, it is not. If the threat was that well-founded, you would get police bodyguards (e.g. Salman Rushdie). Enoch Powell had a guard at time. In later years it was taken away and he had just a panic button.Is it possible for people such as judges, politicians, wealthy in the rest of the UK to own a handgun for protection and also carry it? Does this happen to some degree?
