I have a feeling the gun laws in Sweden are quite strict, PlawsWorth. Found this:

- Be 18 or older.
- Perform a shooting test within a calendar year Jan 1 - Dec 31.
- Be a member of a shooting club for at least 6 months.
- Not have a criminal record.

Not many countries in the world allow civilians to purchase Full Auto guns. Here in New Zealand, the most deadly type of gun is an MSSA or Military Style Semi-Automatic. So you can buy an AK 47, but it'll modified to be single shot only. Liscencing for this class is very hard and expensive though.

I know in Australia some hunters on contract from the government are allowed to posses Full Auto guns for the culling of Kangaroos.

Often police forces require you to obtain written permission before allowing the import of a fire arm or related objects.
