I'm not trying to be a smart butt or anything (especially to Katex).

However, what kind of weapon(s) can you purchase or own over there? As long as an American hasn't been convicted of a felony (seriously not trying to brag), we can purchase pistols, revolvers, rifles, shotguns (but NOT saw-off ones

), crossbows, compound bows, swords, all kinds of knives, plus gunpowder I think, etc.

Are most all these things either banned or severely restricted in England? Has it always been that way? Can hunters have more leeway than just a regular citizen?

Thanks,

Brian
