Which country in the world has the best or most common sense gun rights? I mean who is the most gun friendly.

No one else is even close to the USA? Really?
I'm sure there are some, But none that I could name off hand, I'd look around wikipedia a little. One of the norwegian countrys requires its citizens to take their machine gun home with them, so I've heard.
as far as kyplumbers post, i think he meant scandanavian(sp) countries as norway is very restrictive on guns, not sure you can even own a handgun there(had a lady from norway in the store this winter and she had to have her friend take pictures of her holding various handguns. pretty amusing actually.
only ones better than us are some of the african countries in war torn turmoil that sell full autos at bazaars and such.

[:o)] you are correct, and I think that country was finland?
I think Switzerland mandates gun ownership [:D]
It says in Wikipedia:
"Gun politics in Switzerland are unique in Europe. The personal weapon of militia personnel is kept at home as part of the military obligations. This, in addition to liberal gun laws and strong shooting traditions, has led to a very high gun count per capita. Switzerland has one of the highest gun ownership rates in the world. In recent times political opposition has expressed a desire for tighter gun regulations."
Wound up not taking the job, so it was a non-issue.

Full auto perfectly legal, open carry no problem. Like that? Move to Iraq. Or Somalia. No BATF there. No background checks. No AWB either.
Aren't you special.
Ihave a better suggestion. We gather all the jamesquinn types and send THEM to Iraq, or somewhere else...someplace where 'freedom' means whatever YOU want it to mean.
It is obvious that 'American freedom' means jacksnit to you..and your blood -brothers in the batf and fascist/socialist governments are what you love.
Yep, you can whine about the g'mint there forever, and nobody will care.

We pretty much had that here. Till people like you came along and snit all over it.
I expect I will hang around here and see if enough men finally wise up, re-gain their manhood, and bring those noble ideals back and control away from people like you...thank you kindly.
Manhood? YOU? You're a regular John Hancock alright. What screen name do you think he would have hidden behind? Highball? Hamsterballs? LOLOLOL!!!!!
