Hey duuude ,
Don't stop the Ikea , my wife would have a heart attack and so would half the college kids in this country. As to the blonde blued eyed woman comment , you can stop production anytime you want we produce enough ourselves to keep the mall's here happy, and if not there is always Ms Clairol for the others...
America is a " gun culture " always has been , always will be. If we did'nt have guns to use we would adopt something else like a good claw hammer, they would get the job done but just take more effort.
Personally I carry a gun every day, it is a part of my job. I also collect historical firearms as well, mostly military related everything from handguns to crew served weapons, it is a hobby and believe it or not a good investment in most cases.
Sweden has a long history of manufacture of some of the worlds finest firearms, albet for military use.
The Bofor series of light cannon, Gustav series of light anti armor weapons, as well as many others.
I personally own a couple of Swede's and they are great, a Husqvarna M-40 Lahti 9mm pistol and a M41B Mauser Sniper.
