I forget how much more strict gun laws are elsewhere! People would probably have a lot less guns if they had to go through all that around here.
Less rounds fired means less time spend breathing bore cleaner fumes, no?
(Edit) Also, thanks, I hadn't realized that there was a shooting related community on here until this :D

Well, I shoot so much that gun cleaning is a constant thing...A couple times a week I'm cleaning guns at least, sometimes more depending on what I've been shooting that week. I don't mind it although the fumes get to me sometimes. I get lazy sometimes though...Not often.
Ah, gotcha. I'd love to shoot that much but ammo gets expensive after a while. Which is part of why I don't understand those who just fire for the sake of the recoil and hearing it go bang.
How strict are they there about people owning/shooting Kalashnikovs and the like?
I make my own ammo for rifle and handgun, I'd not be able to keep up if I didn't.
Semi automatic rifles are regulated here since a wanker called Martyn Bryant shot 34 People at Port Arthur. Special permits are required and to get one a person needs to have justification. Generally primary producers and then the gum is locked to the property only.
I'd read about Port Arthur but hadn't realized that things were that strict now. I'm pretty sure it's easier to get a full auto weapon here than it is to get a semiauto there (just a tax stamp, an 'enhanced' background check and lots of cash).
I could talk about guns all day, it's good to find other firearms enthusiasts kicking around on here.
Yeah, the Lord Arthur massacre buggered it up for all of us here unfortunately.
Yeah, guns are one of my things, you can scroll back through The Pew Community to see the sort of stuff I do if you're keen.
