As noted on a couple threads lately, this forum is heavily weighted to those of us in the United States where gun ownership is part of our Constitution. While the right is under attack from many angles, and if you are in some states such as California, New Jersey, or New York, even Air Guns are regulated, most of the rest of us can buy and sell without much issue.
I know this is not the case in many nations around the world include examples like:
Canada where I believe an air rifle is limited to 6 FP limit before needing some kind of a permit.
Britain with the 12 fp limit before requiring an FAC (firearms certificate)
Australia where air rifles are class A weapons and require license and registration. Even a 3 fp air pistol must be registered.
I believe Germany has some very strict laws, though I am not sure about France and other European Countries, does the EU cover these? My ignorance of European law is showing!
From our international friends, what are some of the legalities you deal with?
What are some of the strange things you deal with, like here a moderator is in a legal gray area that no one wants to touch! You'd think in the USA, moderators would be simple, but firearms moderators are regulated much more stringently than firearms, and it's difficult to tell a Air Gun (unregulated) moderator from a firearms Moderator that is regulated.
So, what are the legalities around the world? I'm curious! Lets hear from around the world!
