just to add to your comment, in the UK it's prohibited to carry weapons openly. You can legally own a wide range of firearms but there are strict rules around when and where you can carry them and I believe (based on observation, not research) you're not allowed to take a weapon out of its carry case or bag outside of your home or a registered gun club. You can own a rifle and ammunition and keep them at home as long as you have a police-inspected gun safe for your weapon and a separate one for your ammunition and bolt.
