Hi all!

We're very excited to move to Denmark soon as lifelong Americans. I have a good job lined up, and we're set on a place to live for a while.

Any advice from people who have done it, looked it up, had friends who have done it, etc? Just in general :)

So, do they just issue you a new gun when the plane lands? Is the ammo the same caliber there, or is it all metric?

No gun, but an axe. The raiding party's don't fill themselves afterall.

'Merican here. Y'know (responsibly kept) guns can be a neat unique part of American life, but as dirty and carcinogenic and freaking LOUD as they are, I think I'd rather just get good with a bow, sling, axes, that sorta thing anyway these days. All the fun of hitting a thing with another thing from far away, but without the tinnitus, lead exposure, and expense.

Especially if I could go to a place where crime rates are lower, work/life balance was tilted toward the "life" end, I could walk or bike places, there are trains, accessible education, less fascist subcultures, and maybe if seeing a doctor wasn't a financial catastrophe even with insurance...

I know everywhere has pros and cons but... Sheesh, between guns and all that?

"CLUNK. Here's all my hole-punchers, when's the next plane?" LOL

American 11/32 inch ammo will definitely need to be exchanged for 9mm
