Scottish gun control

American Handgunner, July-August, 2009 by Ed M.

I recently received an email from my Scottish friend. He had just completed the required "Annual interview" (read: search his house and inspect the gun safe, ammunition storage, etc.). It will take four weeks to determine whether he is still "qualified" to own a .22 and another hunting rifle. In the meantime, his permit is suspended--just in case.

I'm afraid it's coming here. God help us. Cheers--or is it tears?
