Shotgun Owners warned over thefts

Hmmm...is the Met at it again? We did some research on this, years ago, for the British Association for Shooting and Conservation [shotgun owners lobby group]. If only the Met would give regular figures for the provenance of shotguns, handguns and firearms used in crime, we could get an accurate picture of changes. It may be that things have changed, but we just have to rely on "spokespersons" rather than time series data. ah well...who cares about truth, bias and validity in these dumbed down days?
