lol

yeah but the 'good reason' doesn't have to be business.

Be bad ass0

or protection.

Yeah, but that good reason is required

@JPax you do need a license/permit regardless

Such as a sport or owning land

And in scotland it's quite expensive to own and keep a shotgun

Even for hunting

those are some nice legs @FUCK fire I just finished.

Wut

Okay, you need to have a personal reason to have a gun, you need to inform and apply at the local police station for a loicence, and then GUN. The personal reason has to be anything above 'I jus wun gun'. So if you wan't to shoot it at targets, that's marksmanship.

That is to say, that as I said before, it is fairly easy to get a gun in the Uk so long as you are not a basketcase.

Legally.

which is declined nearly all the time

It's declined a lot @JPax

It needs to be considered viable by the police, otherwise they'll just yeet your request

I mean a lot.

because a simple, I want it for learning to shoot a pistol, is not a valid reason

It has to be a solid fucking reason.

Like, um, competition shooting?

@Hatter go to a gun range

No

Recreational.

Unfortunately that isn't viable enough

You shouldn't have to do competition to own one if you just want to learn how to shoot.

@JPax yeah, if you're actually in a club for that

say you got robbed and you need a gun so it wont happend again

america is so fucked with gun laws though. imn my jurisdiction, you can get a rifle at 18, and a pistol at 21.

But that's not what I was implying when I said I wish the UK had gun laws which allowed me to get a pistol

You don't need a gun to avoid getting robbed

Fucking maniacs

if you have a gun you cant get robbed

Lies

you just fucking shoot em

That's false

Ben

Also I believe the UK still has pistols banned?

Get back to your shekel hoarding

It does

If it's a barrel shorter than XXX cm it's banned
