an estimated 84 million firearms are legally held in the 15 member states of the EU. Of these, 80 per cent - 67 million guns - are in civilian hands
- Gun laws are tightest in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Poland
- In per capita terms, Germans buy almost as many firearms as Americans
- France has more lawfully held handguns than the Czech Republic, Denmark, England and Wales, Poland, Scotland, and Sweden combined
- Across Europe, officials agree that illegal guns greatly outnumber known legal firearms
That may be true of Europe, but if we ban guns in the US, they will all get turned in and there will be none in circulation.VMI77 wrote:http://www.prnewswire.co.uk/news-releas ... 71805.htmlJusme wrote:I'm wondering what type of "automatic" pistol he had?

I know what you're saying but contrary to leftist myths, Europe is awash in illegal guns.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... scene.htmlThe female partner of the man arrested at Disneyland Paris carrying two handguns, ammunition, and a 'guide to the Koran' has been found.
She was arrested in the Paris home which she reportedly shared with the 28-year-old man, after fleeing the scene yesterday, local media reports.
Two semi-automatic handguns and a knife were detected when the luggage was put through an X-ray machine at the entrance to a hotel, 20 miles east of the French capital.

So the police don't think it could be a possible terrorist attack because the guy they arrested said the guns were for personal protection?
