Question about who buys guns

@Rocked and Loaded
Yes, we all know that.

This is because:
In USA, there is 2/a, and the right to own firearm is actually a civil right based on constitutional amendment.
In EU (and majority of the World), to own a firearm, is just a conditional legal privilege.
This is a great difference.
I understand.

I was only illustrating the point that you could own a gun illegally in much of the US without anyone ever catching you since being seen using a gun in a legal way is not sufficient grounds for a police investigation.

Illegally owned guns usually don’t become an issue until a separate crime has been committed. So a criminal who robs a store will get the book thrown at him including an illegally owned gun but a man hunting with a rifle his dad left him (which could be illegal in some states) is unlikely to ever actually have an issue with the law so long as he keeps his nose clean. A game warden can check your gun for compliance with hunting regulations but they aren’t likely to do a check on it if you're not doing anything suspicious.
 
I think, I can fit that description. I have my firearms, long and short, and semi, for hunting and target shooting (multiple disciplines), member of 4 clubs (of different shooting associations) in total, then firearm coach, shooting sport judge/referee, had a blog on my former club website, and I hunt where the game is (big, small and feather), around the country, plus - of course, Africa. But its not average. I think I would fit in your neigbourhoud.
BTW, my wife worked and studied in the states, so she picked up the slang - she calls me "red-neck" (in pure american english)
You’d be well received in my neighborhood.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx
