While we don't have anything of a small arms industry left in the UK, these weapons must be coming into the country under the noses of HM Customs, a small but dedicated band of individuals have their work cut out; it's a bit like trying to put out the Cuty Sark with a water pistol.
Totally agree anonymous. However, have you heard about the current Liberal Democrat proposals to bolster Customs and Excise with a fully manned border guard?
