Who is this security expert? You do realise its inhumane to shoot deer using calibre's which are not powerful enough to use his words "Drop a target". Would you rather we try and shoot it with an air gun (which requires a license). Gun owners are vetted up the arse by the Garda, and you need a "good reason" to own a gun. Plus The Gardaí have a lot of leeway in what they interpret as good reason.

If I was to move to a developed little island country with little intervention in geopolitics, New Zealand and Ireland would be my top 2 choices. But a big reason why I would choose New Zealand is becuase NZ is a whole lot more gun friendly and less restrictive than Ireland.

How any person who has went through over 14 years of education could still lack such intelligence to make a statement comparing legally held firearms in ireland to firearms used by insurgents in the middle east , last time I checked I have never seen any full automatic 7.62 akms or pkm machineguns at my local gun club , they should focus on the 10s of thousands of illegally held firearms , and note theres nothing more irritating than people fefering to firearms as weapons they can be used as weapons but so can almost everything a pencil can be used as a weapon

E Buckley on the why would we need to for pepper spray. Because it’s a safe self defense option for both parties, and is pretty much the safest option period. On carrying a pocket knife, it’s a tool. I use my knife almost daily. On gun related incidents there’s a murder trial now, a guy got shot 6 times in the chest January in Dublin, and there’s a news article about some weapons found. Google gun Ireland and click on news. I’m not saying you have as many weapon related stuff though because that’d be wrong. I’m just saying it does happen there.

Bullets go through things no matter if it's a 22 or a lapua and a deer requires for a humane kill more than just a 22

So they were legalised for 3 years? What was the reason they were legalised. And they were banned just because the ILLEGAL ownership increased? Does that have anything to do with you guys being allowed them again? How does legal and illegal ownership go into one? So you are now allowed smallbore, but not fullbore? Good luck guys. :)
