[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Ginger Beacon: [QB] [QUOTE][qb]There are legitimate uses for handguns. They can't be eliminated entirely, because self defense really is a legitimate use for them.[/qb][/QUOTE]Rubbish. In the UK "self defence" has not been considered a good reason to want ot own a gun for 61 years. As in since the second world war. You need to prove that you need it either for work, or sport. On top of that you need to name two people of "good charicter", who may be interviewed by the police, you need a your doctor to OK the application. You need to have a gun cabenet installed and inspected by the police, and then you have a face to face interview with police firearms officers. Next, Special Branch carry out a through background check. Then you can get a gun. After this you need to renew your licence periodicaly, and each time you do this you need to have the police come and look at your gun cabenet to make sure it's safe. The police can also issue furthur conditions, to which you must comply or forfit the licence and firearms. That said, you can get a mac10 off the high street in Brixton for a monkey, and circumvent these rules, but the penalty for possesion of an unlicenced (and therefor illegal) fire arm is five years mandatory at Her Maj's pleasure and an unlimited fine.
