In the US, any idiot can walk into a shop and get an M16. In the UK you haven't got a fucking chance.Tyyr wrote:That's true, but how hard would it really be to get a hold of them if you can mail order them in one country?
The idea is to replicate this bloke's criminal associates killing him, either premeditatedly, in a meeting going pear-shaped, or a burglary. US crooks might wander round with mil-spec weapons, but in the UK anything more than handguns and sawn-offs will attract attention. I'd also recommend using handguns (preferably common ones), not SMGs - ballistics will probably be able to identify the type of weapon, and UK crooks do not have ready access to MP5s.They're not certain to be used, only to be used if they absolutely have to be. If they do get used then you make sure that you use ones that are widely available to the public somewhere, say the U.S., and that they don't track back to anyone. Firearms traffic is registered, ammunition isn't.
Tough. The OP disagrees:To me its worth it to avoid a slow down to take some breaching rounds.
