I'm looking for a little information on how widespread and common firearms related offences are in various different countries from the respective board members. Already know about the UK obviously, and American cultural imperialsim has the US covered ;), what what about Europe? Know pretty much nothing about that. How widespread are illegal firearms- are they easy to get, are they used frequently, what's the police's reaction etc.
