Norway got new gun laws.
Hey Norway got some new gun laws a couple of days ago.
The new laws say that you can't have more than 6 weapons, and you have to have a gun locker to put them in. There is also a rumor going, saying that you are no longer able to buy semi-auto rifles and shotgun. The laws are passed but the public have not been informed yet. We already have the .50 cal ban so i just wonder what will be next. This is pretty messed up, even for Norwegian standards. Please tell me what you think.

Is Norway's government sympathetic to UN gun control policy statements?

Hey Bud. I have never heard of any UN gun control policy that the Norwegian government is sympathetic towards. That does not mean that the government is not sympathetic to the UN gun control, it only means that majority of the Norwegian people doesn't know about it.
There have never bean anything in the media about the UN's policy on gun control, and never really an issue at all. I don't want to shout "CONSPIRACY" right away, but it is not far off. Can you tell me the basic, or better, do you have any link about the UN gun control policy? I need to do my homework.

Do you have any kind of organization like the NRA in your country? That is the first thing you should do, get organized, get informed and pool money so you can fight those who want to disarm you.

We got several but the biggest, Norwegian hunting and fishing association(NHFA), don't do anything anymore, they just don't care, so the smaller ones don't do anything unless the bigger one jumps in first. We got a very new one now, designed for shooters, the NHFA was more of a harvesting organisation for fish and game. This new organisation is not fully operational yet, so we don't really have anyone doing anything for us.
The hunting and shooting society in Norway is putting their trust in this new organisation but it might be to late. The laws was passed behind closed doors, we had heard rumors about it coming but suddenly it came, and the first we heard of it was on the news but there is nothing about the laws yet on any government sites. Scary scary.

I got to tell you that what you are writing about is already a fact in Norway.
You are lucky in the states.

Yeah, I am always happy to welcome new freedom-loving people to our country! Especially gun enthusiasts. But sometimes you gotta stand your ground and fight man. Don't let the antis chase you out of your own country, your own home!
Make a stand, get organized, fight. Break their laws, if you really believe in it, it is worth the fight and worth making sacrifices over. So many people here always say they'd never give up their guns or Molon Labe or "they will have to pry them from my cold dead hands" and all that. That's great but I suspect a lot of those people would bow down and give 'em up though if push came to shove. A lot of gun owners in this country are content with letting others finance the good fight and stand up for our rights. I think someone here has a signature that reads something to the effect of "if you aren't a member of GOA or NRA THANKS FOR NOTHING". That's a great slogan, I love it. You are on the front line my friend, you have to do something now. Every day you don't fight they get stronger. I would suggest you start some kind of organization, even if it's a small, local shooting club. Get yourselves organized and then turn to other groups for help. Write to the NRA, I'm sure someone there can help give you advice on how to build a resistance. If you don't want to break their laws, study the laws and find loopholes or something to that effect. Start banding together, merging, growing bigger. Teach kids the joys of responsible firearms use and the value of freedom so you can prep the next generation, don't let the antis get ahold of them first and twist their minds. Find literary inspirations too. Train yourselves to recognize tyranny and STAMP IT OUT MERCILESSLY at every opportunity.

Well we here in Norway don't have any 2nd amendment, so the government think we are to consider us lucky to at all have some weapons and that we should stop crying over it. the reason they do this is popularity, they say that ther is too many guns in the country (illegal), since they have very limited control over these guns they go after the legal guns. They pass a law that says you can't have more than 6 guns. Now they can go after the guns that used to be legal and then say, "this government has reduced the illegal guns in Norway with 30% in the last 4 years. Vote for us"
Makes me sick.:barf: azsixshooter: This new organisation will probably be a new hope for us. The older organisation is made up more of older people who don't have the energy to fight that hard anymore and don't care as long as they can keep that one rifle they have for moose hunting. This new one will be more for young people with interests in competitive shooting like practical rifle, pistol and shotgun. Hopefully this organisation will be the fresh blood we need to survive.

sounds to me like a few facists (nazis) are still there, and they got hold of some political reigns. illegal to have more than 6 guns,no semi auto rifles or shotguns. so whats gonna happen when the brown shirts come back and start kicking in doors in the middle of the night, rounding people up that have guns, shove them in trucks and drive them to trains? or just kick the doors in and shoot anything that breathes? there would be hell to pay should a law be put into place here in the U.S.. i highly doubt it would be passed but i am sure some political knucklehead has thought about it here.

Well, you could consider yourself lucky. If you lived in Greece, for example, ownership of all rifles is banned. To own a pistol involves a lengthy permit process that includes that you be certified by a medical doctor, an eye doctor, and a psychiatrist. Any one of them can disqualify you.
And even if you pass all examines and background checks, the police only issue permits to about 5% of those who are qualified. For the permit is totally at their discretion to issue. Shooters and hunters in Greece are thus pretty much limited to shotgun sports. . |

I am seriously considering moving if not to USA, at least Sweden. They don't have as crazy laws as in Norway and everything is much cheaper there..
I am not moving to Greece. The laws wont take effect until the fall so i have a few months to go shopping and when they come for my guns i will give them the ammo first, one at the time, 2500ft/s. By the way the public have gotten insight now but there was a lot of mystery the first couple of days and nobody knew anything. Our justice minister, who made these laws claims to be a hunter and shooter, much like John Kerry did some time ago.

C'mon, friend. But you might want to check about importing firearms when emigrating, wherever you go. THAT might be a bit of a bother...

No, come to Arizona! We need help voting our loser Governor out of office! It's an embarrassment for a gun-friendly state to have such a horrible wench sitting in the Governor's office.

Well i realy dont consider myself lucky at all. Some of the organisations have started to do somthing, it remains to see how far they are willing to go, there is also a signing campain going on. WE WILL SE.
Hey guy you dont need to fight over me, it is enough bruno to go around for all. If i wil move to the US, Alaska is verry tempting and then going south with Texas , Florida, Arizona, New Mexico and Hawaii coming in last becouse of the heat. (I think it is getting hotter in Norway also, global warming i sleep in a barn the whole year, by choise) California, New York and Washington wont be on this list. Are ther some other states you recomend i eksklude?

Illinois, Massachusetts, probably other east coast states. I don't even consider going anywhere on the eastern seaboard. Stay west of the Rockies and of course stay away from Kalifornia.
