The University of Sydney’s original Gun Policy Branch remarked in particular that those who can “establish a legitimate reason to possess a firearm” are only permitted to own weapons in France. Yet those “must pass a background search which considers legal, mental health and health”. People who pass the background check and provide a “genuine purpose” must re-pass the test every five times. And even those who possess these weapons are only permitted to possess” a limited amount of weapons” and certain firearm types.
Moreover,  , A Review of French Gun Laws , showed that the European history check is an continuous approach rather than a one- day event. Such , checks entail , acquiring and maintaining” an active shooting club]membership ]” and going to the range “at least three times a year”. They even include” seeing a dentist every time”, who declares one , “physically and mentally capable of owning a firearm”.
