Default The firepower of Tech Forums.

OK I was wondering what if any weapons do the members of tech forums own? I have just got rid of my Firearms licence because it was getting to costly to own a weapon. The only things I have kept are my air rifles.

So what do you own?

Well i dont own, its under my dads name. But heck its actually for me

Anyway its a BSA Lightning .22 Air Rifle, the most power before a license is needed. I also own a wealth of expensive BB guns, not really firearms, but there 1.5 Joules in power and manage to make a grown man weep. .

All I have is a 12 gauge, a 243, and a 270. I would like to get some handguns eventually though

Most firearms are illegal here in Iceland, you can get a license for rifles, shotguns and pistols.

Airsoft is illegal here too, which blows.

that's a shame I though it was to hard to get a licence in the UK but you don't have a opportunity to own one. I got rid of it because i don't shoot enough any more and it is to expensive to renew it.
