Banning of Handguns came after Dunblane, how many maniacs have gone on a shooting spree with a handgun in the UK since?
Guns are available in the UK, but mainly shotguns. Either single or double barrel only, which if someone did go on a spree, like that guy in Cumbria a few years ago, really limits the number of people that could be hurt.
With a semi-or modified to full - automatic assault rifle, victims in double figures is easily achieved.
