I don't recall us ever having laws like yours.I agree that there would be less gun homocides if gun laws were similar to other countries. I do not necessarily agree that there would be substantially less homicides.
Generally, a person who wants to kill can find a way to kill. Certainly, there would be less murders based on the removal of more guns as guns increase the likelihood of death and decrease the effort needed to effect death.
But how much is this? How did the uk homicide rate compare by year before and after uk gun restriction? Did gun restriction really make that much of a difference?
After the Dunblane killings in the late 90's we tightened up on handguns and there haven't been many gun related since
