For all those that are interested in the firearms laws of the United Kingdom.



It is extremely well done and well worth the time to view.

This is an interesting video. I was not aware of the long barrel requirement for pistols in the UK. Watching this video makes me thankful for the 2nd Amendment and it makes me aware of what the anti-gunners would like to see in the USA. We have to stay awake.

Callum, who IS 'English Shooting' BTW, usually makes a good video, and this is one more. However, the so-called 'long barrel pistol' is NOT a UK thing, just mainland UK - England, Scotland and Wales. Northern Ireland, the fourth part of the UK, has no such ban on handguns of any kind, and in fact, is one of the very few places outside the USA where people can have a CCW. Around 3000 such permits are on issue, along with the gun to go with them, fr people whose lives are still thought to be under threat.
