Well, if you really want to you can become a member of a 'gunclub' (insert correct English phrase here) where you can practice your marksmanship, but it's confined to shooting ranges only and subject to a lot of rules. You CAN own a registered gun after you have been a member for a year if I remember correctly, but you are only allowed to bring it to the club (or a shooting event) and back. You can shoot with everything from day one if the club allows you to however.
How do I know all this? Well, I had a shooting range practically in my back yard and a friend used to be a sports shooter who actually made it to the Dutch championships. They also taught him to shoot an intruder first, then fire a round into the ceiling. Police will have a hard time proving that you didn't fire a warning shot first
As for the holes in the C-47's windows, it is entirely possible that some kids shot at it with a BB gun, it's not that hard to climb over the fence of the museum. I also noticed a LOT of new shiny padlocks and expensive, new security systems which were not present the last time I was there so maybe they had trouble with vandalism.
