Guns in other countries
Are there any germans, norwegians or swedes out there?? I was wonder what the gun laws are in your countries about buying weapons, like can you buy weaoins if you are an american? can you buy guns like H&K G3's or H&K 94's? is this possible especially for an american? and can you buy full auto firearms in any of your countries? thanks guys for any information available is very helpful

Here in Norway you have to pass an hunters exam or be an active memberof a shooters club to purchase rifles.

If you pass that hunters exam you can apply to your local police office for a licence to by a hunting rifle. You are not allowed to by/own more than one rifle in the same caliber, but they are not so strict.
I own four rifles and one shotgun, and it was no problem getting lisence for these.

You can own semi-automatic rifles for hunting, but not fully automatic.

Rock8296,

Like nearly all Eu coutries, it si forbidden to own full auto rifle. The same for pump rifle.

All other rifles or handguns you can own whatever is the caliber. Some caliber are restricted but not forbidden like .308,.223 and other calibers used by military.

Belgium isn't the worst country for firearmas ownership
