Hello, I like your web page, but feel I really must warn you, NEVER underestimate the gun-control mob! It would greatly sadden me to see another hoard of the most law abiding citizens of any country fall victim to pressure-group-politics and political correctness.As an EX-UK pistol shooter, I know only too well the perils of maintaining a dignified silence when faced with the uninformed loudly talking rubbish, that is how I lost my favourite sport. In England we could only have a pistol for target shooting, (not self-defense or hunting) and they even took that away.I hope you are not going to make the same mistake that we in the UK made, we thought that common-sense and decency would prevail over media-histeria when it came to legislation. Ooooh... how wrong we were!Now legal pistol ownership in the UK does not exist, and even our Olympic shooters have to go out of the country to practice and compete.Needless to say, since the "total ban on the private ownership of handguns" came into force, criminal activity involving illegal pistols in the UK has continued to rise at an alarming rate. In closing, a simple message: Fight for your rights, or lose them...FOREVER! Kind regards, Bernard (North West England). hodge@planet-earth15.freeserve.co.uk
