Legalise the right to carry concealed small firearms

Legalise the right to carry concealed small firearms — 58 signatures. Status: open.

Petition background

Change the law to legalise the right to carry concealed small firearms in public. We believe this right should be heavily regulated – all ammunition must be accounted for, and it should require a 2-week minimum training course on first aid, firearm maintenance, and de-escalation.

Additional details

We believe this is necessary due to the rise in knife crime and violence in our country. We feel upstanding British citizens should have the right to carry concealed firearms. This would need to be approved in a controlled strict way and should not be as easy as obtaining a shotgun licence.
