    Farmers in East Anglia are authorized to be armed. Guns are quite available in the UK outside of the cities and the gun law allows for them.

      True, farmers tend to keep a shotgun around in rural areas, but I think you’d be hard pressed to find a farmer with an AR-15.

        The farmer who lived next to me had an SA80 A2, so yes, they have them and they are legal. They just have to get police permission first.

          Sometimes they even have sea mines.

          Interesting, I didnt think civilians would be allowed to own them. I’m guessing it was a single shot .22 firing cadet version?

          As far as I understand, rifles are restricted to smaller calibers and automatic fire is outright banned.

            East Anglia farmers are crazy.
