Posted by David Kopel: New Report of British Gun Control Failure http://volokh.com/archives/archive_2007_05_20-2007_05_26.shtml#1180043085
Last year, four professors at Portsmouth University [1]conducted a study for the British Home Office, whose essential argument was that the only thing wrong with Great Britain's extremely repressive anti-gun laws is that there are not enough of them. On behalf of the Shooting Sports Trust, Colin Greenwood authored a [2]detailed critique of the study, which is now available on the web. Colin Greenwood is a retired police officer, a leading expert on British firearms police policy, and author of many articles and monographs on the subject, including the 1972 book Firearms Control.
