Looks like there’s a movement to tighten up Swiss gun laws.
Bummer. I’ve always thought the Swiss had a really good model for how things could be done.
Here’s something that jumped out at me (emphasis mine):
The initiative is calling for army weapons to remain in the barracks, a national gun register, a ban on private individuals buying or owning particularly dangerous guns such as automatic weapons or pump-action shotguns…
Pump shotguns? Shit, we sell those at Meijer and WalMart around here.
Unfortunately, Meijer and WalMart (At least those on 28th) no longer sell firearms of any kind.
Talk about a shock for me the last time I was in there.
Haven’t checked out the other stores.
Keep on keepin’ on!
-Abject.
how are swiss politics going these days? What has caused the shift in firearms in that country? This would be a very important situation to watch for sure! Go with some follow up and posting. SPC
