The last time I was there, I've heard things like "You're from Switzerland? I have an aunt in Stockholm." In Switzerland the milice army members, and that's almost all between 20 and 42, have their arm at home, and often keep it after their service. Don't know how it's in Sweden. It is extremely rare these weapons are used for criminal acts (gangsters usually do not use a Sturmgewehr 90), but are sometimes involved in familiar tragedys and suicide cases. That's a reason why it is an actual political topic whether this system should change or not. Didier
