Gun sales rocket in Europe

[CharlesHarris]

I wonder how many covert and illegal weapons leftover from various wars are floating around Europe, having been discreetly hidden away, rather than being turned in... I expect the numbers are substantial, although if anyone here would know one should not spill the beans... It is better that YOU know and that for anyone else it would be foolish for anyone to break the law, banish the thought...

A sporting shotgun beats nothing, but its limited range and the weight and cube of its ammunition makes it difficult for an evader to manage an adequate long term supply.

An accurate .22 bolt rifle fitted with a sound moderator would be very useful, could be used discreetly for hunting and if necessary for defence. Several hundred cartridges could be carried or cached easily and would last a long time if used with discretion.
