What weapons do you legally possess in real life? Do you wander armed?

Albion Swords are machine cut from steel bars, they are not forged.
The quality is high though, but the price is too much IMO.

Here is a video in youtube regarding bare hands fight against a sword in Czech Republic :wink:
Not very successful though… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wImCQQLNwns

Here is a Czech test of various pepper sprays.

At 5:50 the guy says “I think it would be better to get kicked in the balls.”

The blond girl says “Well if I was in the situation I would first spray him and then kick his balls.” :smiley:

This test is after 2 beers and 4 shots of Slivovitz.

Which one? I am lusting over Dan Wesson.

I very much like AMT Hardballer’s (ala Hitman) version of Colt 1911, but the production ended in 2002 and I don’t know if there could be found in Europe.

Russian made pistol TT resembles Colt 1911 and would get the job done and it is relatively well-spread and cheap.

I am trying to avoid buying guns from gun rights oppressing countries, so I am pretty much limited to Czech, Swiss, US makes.

I can respect your reasons, however, everybody has their opinion.

I think that Russian weapons are the best in terms of good quality and cheap price. I used to shoot with the said above TT pistol and 7.62x25 is a strong caliber capable of penetrating level 1 bulletproof vest, which has the potential to stop even prepared armed attackers.

My shotgun is also Russian - Saiga 12 and I can say only good things about it. Many automatic shotguns are troublesome and cause failures, but mine don’t. Maybe because it is a completely stock model and I’ve never fiddled with it (like you’ll see many customizing videos in youtube). As far as my experience tell I prefer to rely on factory’s engineering rather than do-it-myself-I-know-guns tuning :smile:

Here in Bulgaria there is a gun factory dating back to soviet times - Arsenal Kazanlak and it makes a lot of Russian designed guns which usually get exported to USA and sold there. The SLR carbine is a well known and demanded weapon, however, considering your policy about oppressive countries I believe you won’t buy Bulgarian stuff also…

i have impulse control issues so i never go out armed. i’m afraid i’ll behead someone for cutting me off on the freeway

I am aware of the Tokarev round advantages. I am already 90% decided that my next gun purchase will be Vz.52 in June/July (I have to sort some things in between, otherwise I would have already bought it).

I don’t know much about Bulgarian guns. There is one from Romania that I am thinking about though, the PSL. It is half the price of CZ 750, which puts the gun rights argument a bit into the back seat. Any good unexpensive sniper rifle from Bulgaria?

Seriously, you need more knife control in the UK.

We had a similar situation about a month ago. The two first responding officers didn’t have tazers, so they shot both his legs through.

god , how long does it take you to find these 2005 sources ?
knife crime isnt a big issue here AT ALL unless you live on a poor estate and get involved in the wrong crowds.

if you’re not out seeking it 99% of people will never find it

When the most important thing is getting the statistics down, this is what you end up with:

no , not at all that was down to failure completely in the system their and at the moment their is a huge surge to uncover all of these old sex offending circles . also many of this sxual offensces are being commited by muslims and the government seem to be all most scared of tackling it because as soon as they do you get "racists ! islamophobia !! "

that is our main issue right now

the keyword here is confirmation bias.

unfortunately we cant limit peoples access to weapons that can ultimately kill as realistically i could kill you with a shoe if i tried hard enough .
but we limit where we can to prevent as much as we can of course it will never be 0 but why make it worse by giving these people access to guns so easily , if you want to shoot guns here then join a gun club and then apply for a licence its really not hard , the whole process cost ÂŁ50 , there is a gun club not far from me which has an indoor range and a bar etc . if i was to join it i could apply for a license and would most likely get one

I know of at least one case of a husband killing his wife with a slipper.

It seems you failed to read the bbc link I gave there, so just for you here is the headline: Police fail to record one in five of all crimes reported to them, says report

That is the great misunderstanding. The killer will kill, notwithstanding the tool. He will always find the way.

Most victims have no chance to defend themselves, unless they have conceal carried firearm.
