Question on German gun laws

[FLO88]

HI everybody,

just got a little question about german gun laws. Perhaps someone can help me.

Ok: I wanna buy a airsoft M4 , 6mm with energy less than 0.5 joule(allowed to buy when you're 14). In the catalouge they say that you're allowed to carry (in German there's written "führen") the weapon in public. They also write it's better to only carry and shoot on your own property. I'm now wondering if it's allowed when I buy one (I'm 16) and we (me and my friends) carry it through woods where almost nobody is around. I know that I'm gonna have trouble if someone feels threatened by me, but we want to hide ourselves and we're not gonna to raid grandfathers that are going for a walk with their dogs.

Thanks for answering and MERRY X-MAS

No its not allowed.

Sorry for asking again but aren't there new gun laws? They sell these weapons to 14 year olds and even write in catlouges that you're allowed to carry them. (Weapons have engery<0.5 joule)

Can you please give reasons for your answer:

It's allowed to carry these <0,5 Joule weapons in public, but it's not a good idea. You could get serious trouble, or even been shot by the police in worst case.

If you want to skirmish with this toys it's no problem from the view of the gun law. But if the area you play on is not your private property or you're allowed by the owner to play there, it's unlawful! German law call this "Landfriedensbruch".

In short: Don't do it.

I am so fvcking glad that not every 16 year old boy is allowed to walk around with firearms and "drives" a car.

Feeling a bit offended by:

"I am so fvcking glad that not every 16 year old boy is allowed to walk around with firearms and "drives" a car."- Shadow

You just forgot to put stupid in front of 16. I guess I'm able to think rational and that's why I asked before buying a weapon.
And 16 year olds will be allowed to drive a little car with 45 km/h maximum speed after Feb 2005!!! Watch out for crazy 16 year olds!!!

Finally, after reading everyones post, I decided not to do so and rather spend my money on a thing that doesn't cause so much trouble.

Anyway,

Thx again and merry x-mas

You guys need to go get a sense of humour. ****, this is even on the internet. Lighten the f$ck up man.

I could put a joke here (France) and you guys would probably never even catch it! rofl

[FLO88]

I totally agree with MrSkorotsnoy.

I just got a question and didn't want to start a fight between Europeans and Not-Europeans.

So STOP IT!!!!!

16 year olds can't purchase firearms nor can they walk around with them. I'm 21 and I can't walk around with my CETME.

German gun laws suck balls as long as you're no hunter or sports shooter and over 18 of course.
Once you're in a shooting club, things get rather good though ;)

Isn't the laws of hunting rights in most european countries pretty ****ty.
Thought it was sort of limited to the land owners and those who could pay a hell of a lot of money to hunt on their land.


While on this subject, is it even possible to hunt in Britain now, with those crap gun laws they've passed?

[TacoDelRio]

Well I imagine you could always hunt ONCE, then you go to jail. Better bag a REAL trophy! Like an alien or some ****.

I'm so glad to:

-buy alcholic at 14 years and not get arrested if I'm drunk
-drive in highway at 130 km\h
-I have'nt fear of Policemans, and they don't shot me if I get out of my car


Europe it's composed by many country....
