Thanks Adam

I live in Barbados, ex-British protectorate, 3rd oldest house of assembly in the world (1639). All guns need to be licensed, licenses granted by Com of Police. I am a dealer/collector. No crime to speak of, just petty shite and domestic violence - nothing particularly well organised. There is only one kind of gun license which includes the right to carry concealed, no restriction on use to speak of. No 'need' for self-defense guns really but just about the cheapest insurance you can buy. Plenty of shooting clubs including UK NRA 1,000yds, skeet, trap, sporting clays, UIT rifle, UIT pistol, service pistol, IPSC pistol and a few private clubs. Club members can buy tax-free equipment. The shooting sports are well-supported except the fact that you cannot license a gun until you are 25. This doesn't stop club shooters from training, they just leave the gun with someone else or the club.
