Not sure where you were going with that, but violent crime is MUCH higher in the uk than the united states.. actually, its also higher in Au than it is here too. Just because the guns are reduced doesn't mean people will be less likely to harm each other.

You also failed to mention that by your own link there are more than twice as many SUICIDES with firearms than there are homicides that contribute to that overall number.

So, what was that about gun crime and likelyhood of being shot? .. right.. that's what I thought.

Just picked these up, not sure exactly how they'll turn out yet.. but I was happy to be able to get them at all. Lately even polymer lowers like these are hard to find at reasonable price.



Have had these for a while



Mossberg 500 tactical, S&W M&P 9mm, Bersa thunder .380

I used to open carry the Bersa a lot (legal in Va) but given the recent climate I've decided to get my concealed permit and keep it hidden. People dont know how to act so I'd rather they just dont know if I'm carrying or not. I also have a savage model 110 in .270 that I'm looking to sell. I dont hunt anymore so its just collecting dust. no pics of that one since its no where near as interesting as the shotgun and pistols are. lol
