........before the politicians add more draconian restrictions on UK firearms because the Police didn't do their job!

Well, that didn't take long did it?

‘Force gun owners to face online hate trawl’

:evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

It would be more to the point if the local police had acted more sensibly!

Well, if they go looking for my social media profile they will find nothing because I don’t do social media. I only post on a few shooting forums.
Four people were shot and wounded in a drive by shooting in Camden in London at the weekend. That could easily have been another four deaths. Not much mention in the media about that though as that is guaranteed to be an illegal weapon used.
Regards
Peter.
