In the past it was not possible to own any gun except for shotguns, ten years ago we managed to acquire a licence to own what we call collecting guns that has to be pre 1940.
In 2005 with a lot of persuasion and lobbing we managed to change the law in our favour.
Now any body that can obtain a collecting licence after an interview with the police, can own any gun even full automatic as long as it is pre 1946.
Then there is also a shooting licence that can be obtained after an intensive course. With this licence any gun with a barrel above 4 inches can be used for target shooting. We can also use rifles as long as they are semi automatic.
I think that we have achieved a lot these last few years and we are working hard to keep as it is.

Tried CMR, but to buy from UK it is more a problem than USA. Especially now, that they are contemplating to ban even sword. I prefer to buy from Germany or Belgium.
