> ... especially in countries with sane gun (e.g. well thought out, not let's ban everything) regulation that aren't the US. Sanity is in the eye of the permit-holder, I suspect. Most countries seem to rarely change their gun laws, having inherited them from various historical events (or fears of possible events). In Australia we had a major gun law change back in the 1990's in response to a lunatic shooting several dozen people - but I don't know offhand of any other societies that have successfully re-considered their laws and attitudes towards gun ownership.
