He needs to be gelded
Good night! Nothing like getting some of that Muhammad religion stuck to the bottom of your foot. These Islamic believers sure crap up the human environment.
Cherry, which side do you think the police are on?
Which side do you think the criminal justice system is on?
Who do you think is frisked for weapons and who isn’t for fear of offending?
(They are allowed to carry knives for ‘religious ‘purposes )(some of us can’t afford to do 6 years)
Who had their freedom of speech and right of self defence curtailed by successive NWO governments, and who was left untouched?
Who is dragged down the police station for protecting their wife or property from attack, and who is allowed to walk away for fear of offending?
Let me see, no fire arms and your goverment supports the enemy.
All suggestions are welcome, including ‘nuke it from orbit.’
Oh the snarky POS eurotrash...sitting by watching as their women and children are being raped...then complain about the USA.

I’m inclined to agree with you. I have some acquaintances who are Muslim, and they have treated me with nothing but kindness. It becomes difficult to reconcile how they treat me to the horrific acts that we hear about.
Doesn’t mean I’m sympathetic because this BS has to stop and the only way it stops seems to be thru brute force.
Islam, the religion of SATAN.
Perversion is just a symptom of evil.
That is what I am wondering in all Western countries. Looks like Texas is the only place with a few left.
Two World Wars killed off most of the good British manhood.
Erm, the scum was jailed for life, and the judge imposed a minimum term of 18 years.
1—British freepers have constantly explained the British procedure of arrest re: burglary/home invasion, and also the myths about the UK and self defence/defence of home.
2—The British did not and have not banned guns. Another myth. One, as a UK gun owner, I know is wrong.
3—The UK govt is frankly doing more to combat Islamic extremism than the US.
Yawn.
I expect better from you of all people. And I could say the same about the US. If we aint the men of 1914 and 1940, you hell as sure aint the lads of 1917 and 1941.
In fact, you could make the same argument for all Western countries who fought in WW1 and WW2.
The very reason that the left encourages and supports Islam is because it is “incompatible with Western Culture”.
Yep,
It is all a waste of breath.
But we must plod on.
I want my revolvers back.
I don’t know the personal firearms situation in the UK.
Some guns are allowed? Revolvers not among them?
Answer in all the detail you wish, here or privately.
If you don’t care to answer, that’s fine too...I thank you for your time.
Of your interest.
Pistols
The 1997 law did not ban pistols as such and was drafted in terms of small firearms.:3.2 British law defines a "pistol" as a firearm with a barrel shorter than 30 cm or a total length of less than 60 cm (this definition encompasses revolvers, revolving pistols). Only muzzle-loading pistols—including muzzle-loading revolvers—are permitted; in practice all such firearms use black powder—a Class 1 explosive—as the propellant. Small quantities of muzzle-loading pistols and revolvers in various calibres, which comply with the regulations, are manufactured. All other pistols are prohibited on the UK mainland, with some exceptions such as pistols used for the humane dispatch of injured animals (such as deer) and some historical firearms.
Specific models of blank-firing starting pistol that are "readily convertible" to fire live ammunition can also be banned. The Bruni Olympic .380 BBM blank-firing revolver was banned in 2010 on evidence that it was being illegally converted.
Long-barrelled revolvers and pistols
"Long-barrelled revolvers" and "long-barrelled pistols" meeting specified criteria are not classified as small, and hence prohibited, firearms; it is legal, with a Firearm Certificate, to possess them. The barrel must be at least 30 cm long, and the firearm at least 60 cm long, which can be achieved by having a permanently attached extension to the grip or butt of the firearm. Long-barrelled single-shot firearms of any calibre, and semi-automatic pistols of .22 rimfire calibres, are permitted with FAC.
Target pistols
Aside from special temporary exemptions for major events such as the 2012 Olympics, pistol shooting for sporting purposes has been effectively banned since 1997. As a result, the GB pistol squad has to practice abroad.
A few models of single-shot .22 calibre free pistol, as used in the 50 m Olympic 'Free Pistol' match, have been produced to meet the "long-barrelled pistol" conditions. Some free pistols have removable stabiliser bars extending backwards to improve stability; the UK-legal models have been made with non-removable stabilisers to extend the dimensions, instead of contrived and non-functional grip extensions. Examples are the single-shot Pardini K22 Longarm[30] and the Westlake Britarms Long Pistol, a permitted .22LR five-shot semi-automatic pistol.
Shotguns Single-barrelled, double-barrelled shotguns, or those with a lever-action or, pump-action, or semi-automatic and fixed magazine capacity of no more than three (2 in the magazine and one in the chamber) cartridges are permitted on a Shotgun Certificate. Shotguns with a detachable magazine or larger fixed magazine are permitted on a Section 1 Firearms Certificate. Certain types of shotgun ammunition, such as rifled slugs and larger shot sizes can only be bought following the grant of an FAC (firearms certificate). There is no limit on the amount of guns or ammunition that a SGC (shotgun certificate) holder can acquire or possess at one time, although each shotgun is recorded on the certificate.
Airguns
See also: Air gun laws § United Kingdom Airguns are firearms like any other according to the definition given in the Firearms Act 1968 at section 57(1). However, they are exempt from the requirement that a Firearm Certificate or Shotgun Certificate need be obtained to possess or acquire them provided that they meet certain limits as to their power.
Air pistols with a muzzle energy not exceeding 6 ft·lbf (8.1 J) and other airguns with a muzzle energy not exceeding 12 ft·lbf (16.2 J) do not require a certificate and may be acquired, purchased and possessed by anyone over the age of 18 and who is not a prohibited person as specified in section 21 of the Act which relates to persons previously convicted of crime.
The UK Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006 controls online or mail-order sales of airguns by way of trade or business; transactions must be finalised face-to-face although the contract of sale may take place at a distance. The airgun may be sent by the seller to a Registered Firearms Dealer (who will act as the sellers agent in the sale) from whom the gun may be collected by the purchaser.
The same Act introduced the requirement that a person selling airguns or ammunition for airguns by way of trade or business be a Registered Firearms Dealer. It is not an offence for a private individual to sell an airgun to another person as long as both parties are not legally barred from possessing airguns and the transaction does not constitute a business activity.
It became a crime to fire an air weapon beyond the boundary of any premises without the occupier's permission, and increased the lower age limit for buying or possessing an air weapon to 18 years.
From 10 February 2011 The Crime & Security Act 2010 (S.46) made it an offence "...for a person in possession of an air weapon to fail to take reasonable precautions to prevent any person under the age of eighteen from having the weapon with him...".
Any person who is in a building or is on land as a trespasser whilst having a firearm with him commits the offence of trespassing with a firearm. It is immaterial whether or not he has any ammunition with him at the time or whether he actually intends to use it at the place in which he was trespassing.
Airsoft and plastic BB Guns
Two-tone (at least 51% of the gun must be painted in a "non-realistic" colour) Airsoft or other soft air guns firing plastic BBs do not require any kind of licence, and are not controlled by the state, or by local police forces, but cannot be sold to any person under the age of 18. If a person under the stated age wants to train with, use, or fire the gun, they must be accompanied by an adult.
In the case of an imitation firearm, a person must have a valid reason for wanting to own one (i.e. for airsoft skirmishing or re-enacting), even though the process is not nearly as strictly controlled as in the case of a firearm, to obtain an imitation (realistic) looking soft air or other plastic BB gun for skirmishing, you must be a regular Airsoft skirmisher at an insured airsoft site and be registered in the UKARA database.
Ammunition
Explosive, incendiary, noxious (biological, chemical) and armour piercing ammunition types are "prohibited"[16] for civilians, although this ban created a problem for the authorities as expanding ammunition is needed for hunting and vermin control. Expanding ammunition is not only permitted but a legal requirement for deer stalking. Holders of a FAC for the purpose of (game) shooting or deer-stalking are required to have authorisation to acquire and possess expanding ammunition noted on it. The amount of ammunition allowed for purchase and possession is determined by conditions stated on an FAC.
Prohibited firearms
The following are generally prohibited:
Fully automatic or burst-fire weapons, which may include some air guns.
Semi-automatic or pump action rifles that fire centre-fire ammunition (e.g. Colt AR-15)
Firearms disguised as another item (e.g. walking sticks, mobile telephones, etc.)
Rockets and mortars.
Air guns chambered for self-contained gas cartridges.
(Existing owners prior to 20 January 2004 were allowed ownership subject to obtaining a firearm certificate) Any weapon of whatever description designed or adapted for the discharge of any noxious liquid, gas or other thing. This would generally include stun guns, or electric shock devices, and CS gas. Cattle prods would not generally be included, but it would depend on the type.
Firearms which previously fell into a prohibited category, but have been converted to an otherwise permitted form. For example, a pistol which is adapted by permanently fitting a 60-cm long smooth-bore barrel to it does not thereby become permitted.
You can just imagine the dry little clerks fashioning those punitive, pin-point little phrasings: "are not classified as small, and hence prohibited".
Bartleby the Confiscator.
The Left is a killing machine. It wages war constantly in the tiniest of margins and on the grand scale.
Thank you for the info!
You’re welcome.
You may need a stiff drink after that. :)
