Also try http://www.dvc.org.uk/ when it's up; doesn't
seem to be at the moment.

Someone offlist who might be able to help you is my friend
Sean Gabb of the Libertarian Alliance UK; his email
address: old.whig@btinternet.com

He's the author of (among much more; 850,000 words of
his writings are on his webpage alone):
"http://search.freefind.com/find.html?id=1696271&pageid=r&mode=ALL&query=gun"
He should be able to inform you of the current state
of some of the relevant laws.

Please share the info back with the list when/if you
find out.

Thanks,
Russell
