So it's not just American media that exaggerates.

Even in Europe, a rifle and two handguns is a "huge arsenal".

I better watch it. If that's a big arsenal I guess I'm a big time arms dealer.
Son that's somebody with nothing to do with his time but keep me in trouble with mom.
anything to make the story more wild. Waht did the new paper magnet in the 1900's say , anything to boost sales. (paraphrased here)

I will fear no evil: For I carry a .308 and not a .270
Finding a .22 bullet on the ground in England is more of an archeological find. It indicates that many years ago a race of people lived there and they owned guns. I am surprised they didnt cordon off the whole area and preserve it as a historic site like Stonehenge..............

Yes, that is very pertinent.
We have picked up, off the street, quite a few bits of blood, snot and body parts since then mate.

Anything with the date 2017 would be a good start.
Live in the real world, eh?
My wife was reading that story and mentioned the "200 rounds" thing. I reached next to my chair and said " this box has 333 rounds in it."

I guess that 200 round thing would be impressive if they were artillery rounds....
It is on the interweb,most be true.
Like so much else.
Remember the hysterical article from not long ago written by the libtard moonbat who penned that firing an AR-15 was more excitement than he could handle - the experience leaving his lungs breathless and his shoulder bruised and sore?
We may need to start calling them out on such things, perhaps with a statement of "There are only two possibilities here: you're either shoveling sensationalist B.S., or you're a complete p---y. Tell us right now, A or B, which is it?"
I will grant that other people may have a different idea of what constitutes an "arsenal" than I do, but I think we could at least agree that an "arsenal" would be more than a quantity that can be carried easily by a single man all at once. If you're saying "huge arsenal", I'm envisioning a sufficiency to arm companies or regiments.

I'm pretty sure that the response would have been the same if it was yesterday.
Over at this side of the Atlantic the arsenal part of the story starts with the legality of the possession; I am wondering about the handgun part of it in France and maybe even the semi-auto part of long-guns. As far as I know (very little) France is hunting rifles only ( and the type of semi is critical)

One man's arsenal is another man's good start.
Gun control laws make about as much sense as taking ex-lax to cure a cough.
