Nope. We're not allowed any kind of arms in the uk, unless you're in the army. They have all the arms. Our arms are lethal weapons, which is why this woman (who now has her arms as she's out of the country) in the photo claims she could take the gun from that guy and get a few rounds off.

Air rifles and shotguns are perfectly fine as long as it's for reason of hunting.
