    Norway and Switzerland are among the lowest homicide rates in the world with each in the top 10. Norway and Switzerland are among the highest civilian firearm ownership per capita in the world with each in the top 20.
    Maybe if they didn't have any purchaseable firearms, they'd eclipse Japan.

    bulk of guns owned in norway are bolt action rifles or shotguns as you are by and large only able to own a gun in norway if you have a specific use registered with the local police, either hunting or sport, either of which require training/licensing, etc.

    and in 2018 they passed a ban on semi automatic rifles

    In the general public? Absolutely not.

    It's not like 1/3 of the population is walking around Oslo packing.

    I encourage pressing TSA on this issue. In the end he will blame black people.

    Always fun to watch conservatives point to very selective European policies that they like, weird how you never see them talk about Norwegian health care.

    Active troll on Spurstalk.com makes jokes about people dying; posts memes for internet clout

    The joke isn't the dead people, genius.

    “The blade itself incites to deeds of violence.”

    It was true then, and remains the same for guns.

    Will you defend yourself or no?

    Thankfully I live in Texas and I have that option because of Republican Gregg Abbott.

    Who still goes to the bank anyways with everything being online now? Do you go to the bank BeepBumper?

    That was your point.

    You aren't defending yourself if you aren't armed at all times.

    Hundreds of thousands of Americans go to banks every day.

    Do you ever leave your parents' house?

    Norway and Switzerland are among the lowest homicide rates in the world with each in the top 10. Norway and Switzerland are among the highest civilian firearm ownership per capita in the world with each in the top 20.
    Gun ownership is restricted in Norway, unless one has officially do ented a use for the gun. By far the most common grounds for civilian ownership are hunting and sports shooting, in that order. Other needs can include special guard duties or self-defense, but the first is rare unless the person shows identification confirming that they are a trained guard or member of a law-enforcement agency.

    There are special rules for collectors of guns. They are exempt from many parts of the regulation, but, in turn, they must meet even narrower qualifications. Collectors may purchase, but not fire without permission, all kinds of guns in their respective areas of interest, which they have defined in advance.

    Ownership is regulated in paragraph 7,[1] and responsibility for issuing a gun ownership license is given to the police authority in the applicant's district.

    Rifle and shotgun ownership permission can be given to "sober and responsible" persons 18 years or older. The applicant for the permission must do ent a need for the weapon. Three exceptions exist to this age qualification. Persons under the age of 18, but over 16 may apply for rifle or shotgun ownership licence with the consent of parents or guardian. For handguns, the ownership age is 21, but a license can be issued to those 18 or older if certain criteria are met. However, such license is valid for only 1 year and must be renewed to avoid revocation.[5] For inherited weapons, it is up to the local police chief to make a decision based on the individual facts of the case.

    The laws for storage of firearms are strict.

    For shotguns and rifles, the requirement given in the weapons act is to have the firearm, or a vital part of it, securely locked away. Generally, this means an approved gun safe, securely bolted to a non-removable part of the house. (A vital part is considered to be the bolt group—the bolt head will suffice—for rifles, the slide for pistols, or the barrel of a shotgun.)

    The police are allowed to make a home inspection of the safe. An inspection must be announced more than 48 hours in advance, and the police are only allowed to see the safe and make sure it is legally installed.

    Ammunition is generally only sold to persons with valid weapon license. However, if one is in possession of a legally unregistered shotgun bought before 1 April 1990, and is in the hunter registry, one can purchase shotgun ammunition by showing a firearms license or a hunting permit at the place of purchase. Without a special permit only 10,000 rounds of ammunition can be stored by a single person, or 15,000 rounds if 5,000 of them are .22 LR or smaller calibre.

    Older rules stated that the ammunition must be locked away separately, but these rules were abandoned in the latest revision of the weapons act.


    This looks like a great start
