Gun control of the U.K.
It is the contents which put the principal objective at the point of view how the gun control (I help you put on - whole and am) of the U.K. can guarantee public security from the menace of the gun and how can prevent the casualties case with the gun. Because there is not a strong pressure group such as American National Rifle Association (NRA) in the U.K., without the active discussion by gun control supporters and the possession supporters of the gun, the gun control of the U.K. is the class that is severe in the world as well as Japan. In addition, Japan is penal servitude less than ten years more than one year, but the penal regulations of the firearms illegal possession are severer than Japan if there is no upper limit of the fine in the U.K. by penal servitude more than five years. On the other hand, constant consideration is accomplished about the acquisition traditionally because sports hunting and shooting such as the foxhunting are prosperous.
Because the Commonwealth of Nations countries including Australia and the New Zealand take a British legal system into account, there are many similarities about the gun control.

A license and registration
A license and the gun that is admitted
Except an air rifle of the low power, firearms license (Firearm Certificate) or a shotgun license (Shotgun Certificate) is necessary for the possession of all firearms in the U.K.
In the U.K., a shotgun is a gun having the barrels more than 24 inches which are not carved with of the life ring inside. In addition, the thing having a rotary magazine (rotary magazine) is prohibited as mechanism and is limited to guns less than 装弾数 two in the magazine which cannot put on and take off the gun and tube type which do not have the magazine such as two top and bottom type. Based upon the foregoing, I load a chamber (cartridge chamber) with one and two are to charge it and can load a tube magazine with a bullet to up to three. The procedure to acquire a shotgun license from such a regulation is relatively tolerant. This is considered to be a part of the protection of the hunting culture to use the shotgun.
I have a duty to report that there is a fair possession reason every firearms to the police with the firearms license which is different from this, and, as for these firearms, a model, a diameter and serial number are registered with a license. A diameter, a model and serial number are registered with the shotgun license in the same way, but the difference with these firearms license is the point that even several orders can possess as for the shotgun if "they can apply it by oneself safely". The maximum number bullet which I can purchase at a time is shown with the firearms license, and there is the purchase record of the bullet, too.
Acquisition method of the license
It is necessary to explain "sufficient reason to need a gun" at a police station to acquire firearms license, and a police officer of the charge must thereby admit, "I will not harm in the community even if this applicant has a gun". When I apply for a beginner class in this point Japan, it may be said that I resemble a police officer of the charge closely very much in the life security sections of the police station because I receive an interview. The possession reason is for a competition and hunting, but the sports hunting to perform living as pure entertainment other than the extermination of the 立 てるためや harmful animal from historic process becomes a target to be fair. Even a self-protection purpose was admitted, but was prohibited by law revision of 1946 for prevention of crime once.
A procedure of the current firearms license includes acquaintance more than identification, applicant and two years, and, besides, the medical certificate of the doctor, an investigation of the storage situation of the gun are imposed on the minute interview by the examiner of firearms a recommendation person of two that can prove what do not have any problem even if an applicant possesses the gun (they are also investigated minutely by the police) more. I understand that I am considerably similar in the case of Japan about the procedure from here. Furthermore, the police perform a personal life investigation on behalf of a post in charge of the license of firearms, and firearms license is issued only by the person who cleared all these items.
Handling of the gun
A person with the experience that I served the sentence for at a prison more than three years is automatic, and a qualification of the firearms license application is deprived of forever. And you must keep the licensed thing with special attention about the firearms to own. As stated above, there is not a problem or is checked whether the storage situation is investigated before the grant of the license by a police officer, and it is protected at every update of the license. I may be assigned to further regulation other than legal regulation at a local police station. When there is violation of laws and ordinances, license and all the firearms to possess forfeit it. When I possess firearms without permission, I will get the at least five years in prison and unlimited fine punishment.
In late years when "a bill for brutal crime reduction" is discussed and passes the British Diet, the possibility that the severe regulation named watches of the night is hung for possession, sale, the air rifle of the gun and the production of the simulation gun (an air software cancer and model gun) appears, but the carefulness opinion is started from a noble respecting hunting culture, too.
Weapon except the gun
In addition, the regulation of the possession of the weapon in the U.K. is severe, and, as for the air rifle, the possession such as stun gun or pepper spray, 手之内 (the hidden weapon which does not have the blade) is prohibited although the competition use is unlicensed and can use it except a minor. In Japan, 手之内, a stun gun and the pepper spray do not have to take the permission, and possession is possible.
In late years a lot of robberies by sword "samurai SORD" of the Japanese sword type happen in the U.K. Following the fact that samurai SORD which was available on the Internet easily was used for crimes such as robbery or the murder, the government announced the prohibition of possession, production, the import of samurai SORD in 2008. In addition, the Japanese sword (art sword) which caught the regular judgment as artworks is excluded from a prohibition object.
The gun that circulates
As for the circulating gun, 5 million orders and a considerable number are sold. A lot of small studio and firearms shops where this handles a shotgun for the hunting from old days exist, and it is one of the factors to continue selling production against a domestic noble and collector in the present age. Because the value as the industrial art object is high in these guns, I keep it as collection even if I do not really use it, and there are many nobles opening it to the public in a castle and the hall which oneself inherited.
In addition, a noble owning a person owning land not a license system admitting the hunting in the U.K., very large land lends the land to a hunting lover at time and includes that a hurdle beginning hunting is low.
In addition, diffusion rate in all families is 3%.
Case about the gun
It is severe gun control of the U.K., but firearms case of around 4 times in Japan occurs by the population ratio, and the ratios that firearms occupy in the whole murder case are more than the double of 7.5% and Japanese 3.5%. In addition, the shooting rampage to produce a large number of casualties often occurs.
The hanger Ford shooting rampage () that the human being of 16 died in 1987 once a year occurs recently. A shooting incident was in 1,996 years in Scottish Dan brainy person elementary school (I correspond to the elementary school of Japan), and the Dan brainy person shooting rampage () that 17 died of 16 students and teacher one in total occurred.
In 2010, the Cumbria shooting rampage () happened in Cumbria, and 12 people died [1]
Whenever the case with such a gun happens, the regulation is strengthened.
