Hi all. I am setting up a thread that might expand to a page of old footage from the Irish RTE tV station archives of gunownership and related over the decades,so people can learn on how things have changed[or not] for Irish gunowners.

That's a brilliant initiative! Tracing the history of gun ownership through RTE's archives will provide invaluable insights. I've seen firsthand how craftsmanship and gun laws have evolved. For instance, the 1989 ASGI's demand to ban crossbows and stun guns marked a significant shift in public sentiment and policy. It's vital to understand the intricacies of such changes to appreciate the current state of gun ownership in Ireland
