    True, farmers tend to keep a shotgun around in rural areas, but I think you’d be hard pressed to find a farmer with an AR-15.

      The farmer who lived next to me had an SA80 A2, so yes, they have them and they are legal. They just have to get police permission first.

        Interesting, I didnt think civilians would be allowed to own them. I’m guessing it was a single shot .22 firing cadet version?

        As far as I understand, rifles are restricted to smaller calibers and automatic fire is outright banned.
