Exec Posted May 28, 2016 Posted May 28, 2016 Same as some here, I grew up alongside a farming environment. Possess firearm and shotgun certificates & enjoy clay shooting once a fortnight. Clay shooting since I was 4 years old - I do still enjoy winning competitions Quote
Juggalo Posted June 2, 2016 Posted June 2, 2016 Stupidest knee jerk reaction was banning hand guns. When they banned handguns in 1997, firearms offences (All classes) were around 12,400 per annum. By 2003 it was a little over 23,000. 1 Quote
GMballistic Posted June 2, 2016 Posted June 2, 2016 Stupidest knee jerk reaction was banning hand guns.

It was a disgusting event that caused that but it was done by one mentally ill man and yet all the legal gun owners at the time (imo) were basically tarred with the same brush as lunatics who could kill a load of children at any second unless their guns were taken from them immediately. As you state it has done nothing to lower the firearms offences according to the numbers. Quote
