Also...if I get the insurance....since I've already had the lessons and tests (and even have a license), can I actually own a firearm made for that sole purpose of killing people - because I've always wanted a 249 on my mantle, or a 40mm recoilless..... but the hoops I'd have to jump through, or the laws I'd have to break, currently...are prohibitive. If it was just like getting my Class A.....then calling up my agent......shiiiit, lol.
I have to ask, though, you from the US or Europe.....you can operate a 40 ton vehicle here with nothing in the way of rigorous lessons..and the kind of test designed to pass half the stumps in the forest......
