Dear Mr. Tacfoley,

Thank you for a very enlightening run-down of British gun legislation - quite informative and scary, if I may say so. Having spent ten years as an Army officer, I don't think I'd like some rookie desk-jockey supervise my use of my own guns either.
My M1928 Thompson and my Vickers heavy MG are legally full-auto, but I had to convert the STENgun, the BRENgun, the Suomi M-1931, the FN-FAL G1 and the CZ-25 to semi only. Go figure.

Speaking of the IRA, my CZ-25 came out of an IRA weapons dump years ago. When I got it, it was full of soil and flour - it turned out that this particular dump had been uncovered on a farm somewhere in Northern Ireland.

If you - or anybody else on here - ever come to Norway, I'd be more than happy to take you to the range to do some full-auto shooting.

Regards,

Balder
