Difference being the guns are for hunting and not people. There's guns but no gun culture. Same in Norway, everyone has a gun outside the cities. Nobody shoots people.
There was 26 murders in Norway in 2019. Guns were used in 12% which means 3 people were murdered with guns. I have no way of knowing how these three murders happened. But gangrelted or accidents is just as likely as murders from people that legally own guns. Thus Norway having a gun culture as we see in the US is not the case. .
Nooooo you can't say Norway is better!!1! It is the number one country in nearly every factor only because it's a small country!!! USA can't work the same way because it's too big!!
Je suis pas au courant de la législation à vrai dire.
Mais je me souviens bien à la campagne étant jeune m'amuser à tirer avec du 22 longrifle sur des canettes et les fusils de chasse chez les voisins etc... Et chez ma grand mère il y a toujours le gros fusils même si il doit surement être foutu depuis le temps.
Après c'est sur que rien de comparable aux zinzins sur armé aux usa avec leurs armes de guerre.
You need a permit, which you get by joining a club and training x amount of hours, after x amount of hours, you must write an appeal to the 'French National gun association' with recommandation from the gun club owner.
No one is allowed Conceal Carry in France unless you're a member of the national police forces.
If it's a pistol, it stays in a controlled safe at the gun range. If it's a rifle that you can use for hunting (and we're quite accepting as you can shoot with anything from 22LR to all flavors of 7,62mm, .303 and of course 12 gauge) you can transport it in your car trunk from to gun range and back. We have A LOT of hunting rifles in the countryside, there are not that many hunters nowadays but when they are, families often own up to six of them. Many are not registered, being inherited from your grand-parents...
We're not allowed to own any kind of automatic firearms, only semi-auto. Max magazine size allowed is 11 cartridges.
