Please leave the leagal shooters alone wee are not the ones to worry about. We do noone any harm this is our sport. It is what we do so please think again thanks
when will these Politicians learn that legally owned and registered firearms are not the problem!!. and trying to ban ordinary people from buying firearms wont stop criminals from getting there hands on them.
criminals dont abide by the law!!!! all there doing is turning ireland into an even bigger nanny state and taking away even more rights from law abideing citizens!!!!!!.
Once again the legal firearm owners are being targeted so that government ministers can say they are doing something about guns in ireland we are and easy target instead of the garda and government tackling illegal guns in the hands of criminals (which they can obtain easier than the legal ones)
This proposal by the Irish government is outrageous! Contrary to what those politicians think (not what I wanted to say, but this is a public domain), the right of the people to keep and bear arms is just that, a right! Once again this isn’t about guns at all, it’s all about control going to a corrupt government and an equally corrupt police force. We can’t let what happened in the UK, Australia and other countries happen to the Irish Republic. The law abiding citizens are not to blame for the actions of criminals.
Instead of banning recreational and/or sport activities, spend time on making it harder for criminals getting armed. Such things might include alarms in houses, gun safe regulations, dividing weapon into several parts etc. Just because it’s easy to regulate legal citizien doesn’t mean that the ones breaking the law will obey it!
