    They’re trying to ‘fix’ a problem that doesn’t exist in this country, grrrr
    They are afraid that someone will have a go at them. Their current vest will not stop much, therefore all large calibre guns must go to stop someone being a sniper and taking a cop out. Police have said in the FCAF meeting that large calibre rifles will go, so its only a matter of time that for no reason at all they will implement an upper muzzle energy limit so as to ban a lot of rifles. If they throw in a law change at the same time, like they did with ammo, then they wont have to buy the guns from us.
