Thanks, JAB! You've always been nicer than some of those other meanies. What I should have said is that no-one here in the UK
needs a handgun. And indeed, we all get by without. As for shotguns like the ones shown in Toad's pics, I can have one if I want, but currently have no need. If that changes, I'll let you know!
Mr. T - thanks for posting those Alvie Estate pics. I was able to find their website, and it looks like an interesting place. I might have to go there myself. Their prices look OK. I'll even give the clay pigeon shooting a try! As you can see, Scotland is very beautiful - peaceful too, except places like Glasgow. I was there just last month - at Onick, from where we climbed Ben Nevis (4406ft). My cod, it nearly killed me. The heart & lungs were OK, but oh the legs! - took 3-4 days to recover.
Mash - oh *they* already have other means - sharp objects etc., but these methods are much less efficient, which is why many fewer people are killed, and is also the reason that police and military forces around the world tend to use guns rather than swords.
