I watched this film called Outlaws and the main character just got back from the army and he brought a big sports bag full of guns home with him. He had a fuckin AK-47 in there.

Do people who serve in the army for a long time actually get to bring home assault rifles with them or is this just some movie bullshit?

Movie bullshit.

Movie Bullshit although some people have tried to smuggle guns back.

I knew a guy in high-school who tried to mail himself back a grenade, needless the to he spend the remained of his 4 years shovelign shit in Kuwait.

I suppose you could theoretically mail yourself a gun back from a warzone, mail a different part of it along with normal goodies like photos and shit back each week or so, and when you get home, assemble! and for ammunition, 1 round at a time...

/bullshit.

In england its not illegal to own parts of a gun, just the ammunition and the gun itself.
You could own every part of the gun and put it together your self.

You sure? The loophole there would be if your house got raided and you had a gun, strip it immediately, so if the gun isn't together what can they do? provided you had no ammunition of course. But of course from the time they boot your door down to having you in cuffs on the floor you have maybe 5-7 seconds tops depending on the house and maybe 4-5 seconds if its a flat.

I'm pretty confident that if i was caught down a dark alley way with evert part to an SA80 in a bag including bayonet, they would do me for something...."with intent".

I think so, i remember reading a newspaper and it said that people were selling the parts for guns so you could make them at home.

When you're being discharged, smuggle it in with your clothing.

Obviously it cannot be an army issue gun as they keep tabs on those.

So retrieve it from a warzone.

With the US military, there's procedures that make it possible to bring weapons home. I believe you have to have purchased it, and then turn it into the armory. Once at the armory, they will inspect it to make sure the action on the bolt does not work, and that the barrel is welded. So basically, the gun cannot every be fired again, without at least replacing every moving part.

You cannot bring home a gun, taken from enemy soldiers. If you're caught trying to bring a gun home, guarantee you're gonna spend a few years, at least, making big rocks into little rocks.

Oh yeah, it's usually a bad idea to smuggle things back; there was this Marine, who got caught smuggling a severed human hand back from the desert, not too long ago.
