There’s a lot of political correctness crashing to earth in Europe these days, thanks to the prospect of millions of Muslims moving into an taking advantage of the welfare states, imposing no-go areas governed by Shari, and demanding changes in their host cultures. Oh yeah, and causing rape and robbery and homicide rates to skyrocket.
In Austria, the public is arming itself as rapidly as law and and the supply of guns wll allow. The UK Daily Mail reports:
Weapon sales are soaring in Austria as citizens of the small Alpine nation become paranoid over the numbers of refugees crowding into their country.
In a country of 8.5 million people, there are now an estimated 900,000 firearms in homes.
And gun dealers report that it is women driving the sales rush. This year alone, police say 70,000 guns have been sold.
'Virtually all shotguns are currently sold out, because you need no permit for them', said Thomas Ortner, spokesman for an arms dealer in Upper Austria.
For every other type of weapon, a licence is required.
Licence courses, in which applicants must demonstrate knowledge of firearms, used to take place every five weeks but they are now held weekly because of spiking demand.
In cities like Salzburg, a line of people outside the necessary government office to get the paperwork to buy a gun is now an everyday sight.

Paranoid? Not sure the author knows what the word means.

Shotguns vs. the AK47’s that will suddenly appear in the hands of the islamic invaders.
Could NEVER happen here ping!
A great defensive pump or semi-auto shotgun, handled well, will drop any jihadi at urban combat ranges. Using only SxS and/or O/U fowling and trap shooting pieces? God help them.
Shotgun vs. AK at typical 10 meter urban shooting?
Yeah, all those Religion Of Peaceniks are causing a bit of a panic, I’d say.

For the Austrians...
Just because we CAN...
I didn’t mean to to downplay the effectiveness of shotguns, I doubt Austria will allow repeaters and then there’s a matter of firepower and range if it were to come to that.

They’re already working on it. Have heard Salt Lake is preparing for more than 3000 “Syrian refugees” in the next year.
If history teaches anything, it’s this:
NEVER piss off the Germans...
Ask the French....
I watched Hogan's heroes last night.
Hogan convinced Hitler's military general staff that they were replaced by Klink during the D-day invasion and that Klink was ordered to give no orders without his permission, and history was made...... the Germans were late to the beaches with the tanks.
“A great defensive pump or semi-auto shotgun, handled well, will drop any jihadi at urban combat ranges.”
“Category D: Self-loading centrefire rifles, pump-action or self-loading shotguns holding more than 5 rounds. Functional Category D firearms are restricted to government agencies and occupational shooters. Collectors may own deactivated Category D firearms.”
Oops, the Mossberg 500 pump shotgun is illegal now, they hold too many shells!
