110,000 Californians bought guns during pandemic

[Counselor706]

A new study reveals that 110,000 Californians bought guns during the coronavirus pandemic, 43% for the first time — and the most common reason given was fear of “lawlessness.”

The study, carried out by the Violence Prevention Research Program at the University of California Davis, casts firearm purchases as a response to the “pandemic,” and concludes that COVID-19 “exacerbated persistent structural, economic, and social inequities in the conditions that contribute to violence and its consequences."

In England it's, "Could you write down in fifty words or less why you think you need a gun."

If you want an air rifle or shotgun - get a licence. If you are not a former long term prisoner or an inhabitant of a mental asylum (and very few people are the latter) - you should have no problem.

It's interesting that in the UK suppressors are legal and seemingly widely used. They are gaining a lot of use in the USA too, but still regulated by the law and taxed.
