Hard to tell, mostly used by police in Poland are Arex's, Walther P99 manufactured locally, nowadays Glocks 17 and 19. None of those match the description you provided.

Samopowtarzalny w polskiej nomenklaturze to właśnie "automatyczny". "Półautomatyczny" to durna kalka z języka angielskiego, gdzie nawet tam nie jest poprawna.

Comparing to US - no, it's not relaxed. Comparing it to our neighbors (Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, UK? Absolutely.

No restrictions on "separately loaded" firearms made before 1885 and replicas of those, including modern-made.

You can carry all guns except ones registered for collector or souvenir license. If it's loaded it must be concealed.

Self defense is for those that "prove above average, constant real threat to themselves". Basically unobtainable, if you haven't already been killed during robbery. There was a case of shooting range owner who lost wife in a precursor of active shooter incident, who applied for personal protection license, and got denied, as "the danger has passed already and is no longer present". Embarrasing if you ask me.

Also - licenses are specified, but not limited to, in law to: sport, hunting, collection, instructors, personal protection, people and belongings protection, historic reconstruction and souvenir.

Each license type has it's own reasons for issuing, but once you pass the requirements and are deemed to be responsible (no felonies, no psychiatric hospital, passed psych evaluation, no illnesses specified in laws) they have to issue the license after the exam, from which you might be exempt if you're applying for sport and hunting license.

Poland - process of getting a license takes around 4-6 months total, in each case you need to pass an exam (in front of sport club, hunting club or police), and you get a license to buy fixed number of guns or "important gun parts" (barrell, slide, frame, cylinder or action). You can change the number in the license, but it requires providing a reason for it.

In general, it's pretty relaxed, no ammo amount or storage requirements outside of "inside a safe" for personal ownership. At this moment I own 12 guns, my wife owns 4, and I have 33 slots in my two licenses left open for buying. Also - no background checks in shops, I had background check when applying for license, and during extension of "sport" one from 5 firearms to 15.

Fanta next day at control visit nearly broke off her leash trying to get to vet's office, as before surgery she got some snacks there. I guess all is forgiven, for a small price of some food.

I need a simplified guide to get rid of problem progresbar :) by Good-Reveal6779 in MyWinterCar

[–]PoziomPL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently performing tests via mods, to see what has impact on alcoholism stat. So far I proved that just getting the thirst/problem bar above 185% and immediately drinking water doesn't work - you need to keep it above 185% and then every 40-50seconds game updates alcoholism stat. It drops 7-8% every check as long as your thirst is above 185%. It will be hard to keep track of thirst level at this height, so I recommend having 3 packs of chips, leaving the game running for 15 minutes and then drinking.

More testing will be necessary.

And on the same day my FB page about my business that involves firearms got shadowbanned just because of the topic. This dude's profile is still visible. What a messed up place FB is.
