So to do list :
- Got to store, pick out gun, fondle it while trying not to drool to much, pay 30%, get serial for application
- get certificate from gun club, that i'm a regular shooter
this sunday when the club secretary is @ the range
- get sign off from city hall, that i don't have any criminal history
already requested, should have it by monday
- medical sign off from my MD, that i'm fit and sane enough for guns
tuesday, work from home, then go to the MD for his signature
- fill in the forms, send em over to Bruges
- wait for the gubmint to get back to me, must be within 4 months
- Pay my 92,72 euro's
- The Fuzz makes a house call to check if i don't run a methlab or whatnot
- Pass theoretical test, about gun laws
- Pass the practical test , supervised by the fuzz, safe handling test
(i've seen every episode of The A-team, Full Metal Jacket, Platoon and Magnum PI : piece of cake)
- Drive 180 clicks, pickup The Precious, grab a brick of .45 ball, some lubicrant, and a lockable case, drive 180 clicks back home
( i did it in 1hour 15 minutes today, i had the Captital H&A in Hauling Ass fully covered)
- Strip and lube The Precious
- Go to the range and consume the marriage.
That's what needs to happen to get a gun in Belgium... And that's probably one of the easier countries in the EU, Holland is worse, France only allows certain non military calibers, UK i think is i think near impossible except for hunting , and even then.. (maybe a brit can chime in on that)
