Legalise civilians carrying a firearm for self-defence and sport

Petition Details

To legalise small arms like handguns and carbine and rifles chambering pistol sized rounds like .22 calibre, .45 calibre and 9mm.

Additional Information

Making these weapons legal could reduce the risk of crimes in some cases, as people may be assumed to have a weapon for self-defence.

It could also be a healthy sport for weapons enthusiasts such as myself.
