In Britain, the general population has never had, or wanted, casual access to firearms, they were never commonly available and then restricted. (particlularly handguns, shotguns and rifles for farmers and hunters maybe a bit more common).

The restriction on owning firearms only ever affected a very small fraction on the population, changes in overall violent crime rates would be due to toher factors. IMHO
