Accuracy Beretta/Luger

RK, I agree there's no point in arguing about who has "more" guns and my eyes have deteriorated to the point where you'd likely clean my clock with a handgun.

In truth, I left many good friends in England who enjoyed the shooting sports and I sincerely regret that the government has seen fit to deprive them of that pleasure. The shooting men and women I knew were more responsible than the public at large by a great margin. The shooting clubs I belonged to vetted every new applicant to be certain that they'd fit both socially and responsibly before they were extended membership.

Other than on this board I do not know Mr. Tacfoley and sometimes his wit goes over my head but I take absolutely NO pleasure from the situation he finds himself in as regards firearms. It's a lousy thing that the British government has done to their people. Private ownership of firearms is the supreme acknowledgement by government that the population is trustworthy and responsible. Individuals who don't trust their own citizens - or subjects - don't belong in government service IMO. We have more than our share of those kind in our own government.
