Right on Lee, that is exactly what happened in the UK! A little bit at a time, Semi-auto rifles, then pistols, then large capacity pump & auto shotguns!! All on the pretext of making life safer for the general public and what happened................gun crime soared!!!!! Even now, some are still trying to bring in restrictions on Air weapons, deactivated guns & replicas?????????????????????????? They still will not address the root causes of Armed Crime and care more about the "rights" of the criminal than the "rights" of the ordinary law abiding citizen. The British shooting public were not organised, most didn't believe they needed any organisations so were not members, the organisations we had were so narrow minded and closeted that they did not care for shooting in general, only their own little niche discipline. The good news is that the ones that are left & still shooting are the Die-hards, who have adapted, improvised and are slowly fighting back & gaining support from other members of the public who are at last seeing the truth. So stand up & be counted, join your Shooting organisations and don't take any more of this crap from the politicos! Let's make the Majority actually Rule for a change!! ![]() Rant over! | |

WE are at a great turning point in history right now. WE are the ones that are going to determine if our great grandchildren have the right to bare arms. ALL other issues will come and go, BUT once 2A has been taken away, it will never come back and WE will be to blame. Maybe it is just too late now. I don't see any TRUE progun people running for office. A "compromise" is an infringment. This little bite is an infringment. Quote:
