Not content with samuri swords, the Brits now want to ban all "deactivated" guns.

"Typically, a deactivated gun has its barrel sawn down the middle and a metal rod is then welded inside to make it incapable of discharging a bullet.

The breech block - which contains the mechanism to actually fire the bullet - is ground down so there is no firing pin."

I'm expecting iron pipe and machine tools to be next on the list.

Can you legally own a steak knife in the UK?

Nothing is more unpredictable than the mob, nothing more obscure than public opinion, nothing more deceptive than the whole political system.
