Thread: Required to justify the number of firearms you own?

In Britain your ammo is licensed as well. There is a maximum number of rounds you can buy at one time and a maximum number you can have in your possession.
You are being reasonable, but Police HQ is not, they are trying to chip away at firearms laws and slowly reduce your legal rights to own and use firearms.

Being an older guy I have already seen our "freedoms" eaten away. Dont forget a few years ago, one party thought it would be a good idea to hold all firearms in arsenals and you booked them in and out!! I think its on their mind!!
