From Firearms United
The cat is out of the bag now… New attempt (16.11.2016!) by the EU commission to ban specifically: Civilian firearms of “AR 15 family”, also derivates Civilian firearms of “AK47 family”, also derivates ALL detachable magazines above 10 rounds (also for handguns, repeating-firearms, rimfires etc.) Strong regulation of magazines and semi-automatic firearms Stricest evaluation of exemptions Immediate decision on bans, since “EU citizens” demand more protection! Sourced from EU commission document, 16. November 2016, published on Website of Austrian Parliament People of the Gun in Europe go forth an tell your MEP, MP and Home-Office what you think of this proposals politely but firm

The EU was a mistake. I feel so bad for all of our cousins in the old countries.
Hopefully Brexit will actually happen and bring down the EU in the process. Sovereignty needs to be restored to the people. |

Like someone in other thread mentioned, as a gun owners we´re all in this boat together, you guys in the States and we in the Europe. If we lose the fight for our rights, then yours are next at the line of fire and vice versa. The meeting is kept behind closed doors so theres probably no information avaible during the meet.

It sounds like a compromise bill was passed and all military style weapons will be banned in the near future.

We're trying to fight it. The military wrote a brief against the previous attempt to restrict EBRs and full autos. With the agression from Russia we're trying to remind our politicans of the need for these firearms.
I've emailed the following to Swedish politicians, both in the EU and back home. http://svenskjakt.se/jakt-prylar/vapen-skytte/forsvarsmakten-sagar-eu-vapenforslag/ The gist of it is that military needs civilians who own and train with both semi-autos and full-autos. The full brief from the MoD is here: http://svenskjakt.se/wp-content/uploads/converted_files/13287/13287-cpdf-1.pdf |
