Check out the gun laws in Australia before you consider an intercontinental move. Just as bad as UK there.
Much better move to South Carolina, the state liberals love to hate more than any other. Do you know what we call someone who owns less than one hundred guns?

I am not afraid of strict gun laws in countries where the laws have been in force for several decades. For example Japan and UK have strict gun laws. But they also have very low gun related crimes because even the bad guys have a hard time getting guns there.
US is another situation. Every law breaker in US owns guns. If the anti-gun people can show me how do they propose to disarm the bad guys, I would be willing to hand over my guns. So long as the bad guys have guns, I am 100% with NRA. It is stupid to disarm the good guys when there is no way to disarm the bad guys.
On top of all that, I also believe an armed citizenry is a great firewall against dictatorship.
