At a certain level of civilization, armed violence is eradicated. The USA, Brazil, most of Africa and shitholes like that are not on that level yet and far from ever reaching it.

Poland is a safe country you wouldn’t really require a gun its not the US were shootings almost happen every day.

I'd be comfortable trusting the average random Polish person with my safety, and especially with everything going on in Ukraine right now, it might be a good idea to have more guns in circulation in Poland, just in case something bad happens...

@@zeyrox0_0 What he's saying is that it's important to have armed citizens because land invasions of nations with armed citizens ready to fight are nearly impossible to invade, one of the 2 biggest reasons why land invasions of the US are nearly impossible is because almost every citizen is armed, if Polands citizens were to be armed other countries that surround Poland would be HEAVILY inclined to not invade because of how taxing putting down so many armed citizens would be

@@zeyrox0_0 mainly because poland is 99% white. And strong Christian culture. You don’t have 13% black population 18% Hispanic. And you also have very secure borders

We’re not allowed to talk about that. 🤫

100% true

It’s obvious to anyone that white Americans are not the problem, though we do have to suffer the consequences

Hello Ryan Vargas! Great last name! I used to work in Ringling Brothers Circus and I do believe that there is a circus family with your last name, any relation? (I'm sure it is a popular last name) This is an interesting point. You can own way cooler guns here than in other European countries. What are some guns that you can use here that you can't own in other countries? Thank you for t eh comment and consider subscribing to the channel if you aren't already!

Wow man that is so funny you mention that! Small world…Yes there is but it’s no relation to me. I live in California and they still come into town.

@@thepolandexperience4268 As for the stuff you can own it’s mainly the standard capacity mags and anything in what some countries consider a “military caliber” that’s why you’ll see stuff made in say 9x21 instead of 9x19mm. Many Semi autos are limited to 3 rounds like in France. Also Switzerland, Slovenia, Czech Rep.,Finland are great because you can with a permit still buy almost any Semi auto handgun/rifle available and usually some awesome guns you can rarely find in the States because of our 922r legislation.

I swear to God if I hear another uninformed westerner calling Poland "based" one more time, I'm going to burst a Pieróg gland. We have some of the most fucked-up sexual assault statutes in the EU and rampant violence against the LGBT crowd in which fucking PIS looks the other way. There was one disturbing story of a teenage girl who was raped by a relative, and the court dismissed the charges because the victim was too in-shock to resist and "didn't scream". Yes, this garbage exists in our legal system.

I am a dual citizen of Poland and America, though I currently reside in America can I apply for a sports license in Poland?

​@@tylerlungu447 If you declare your residence in America than you can't. When applying for a license you need to provide an address of permanent residence within Poland. It is a condition of getting a license. If you live abroad you will be declined. Citizenship is never mentioned in Polish gun laws, no need to have it. BTW, why would you need a gun license in Poland if you are not in Poland? P.S. Since writing the first post I now have two licenses in Poland. Sport and collector's. I haven't bought anything yet, but I guess I should start with a carry pistol that could be used in a practical competition shooting.

@@M3rl1n177 UoBiA + art.25 KK + art. 26 KK + RwsWRS + RwsPiNB + RwsPBiAŚTP. And if you want sport license there is even more documents to memorize regarding sport shooting.

Do they require gun education in school?

Strzelaj w nogi? To zły pomysł. W nogach znajdują się największe tętnice w ciele, po ich uszkodzeniu lump wykrwawi się w kilkadziesiąt sekund. Poza tym, o ile nie jesteś operatorem jednostki specjalnej, w stresie, wyrwany ze snu, chcesz trafić w ruchomy, trudny cel jakim są nogi? W takiej sytuacji strzelasz w korpus, bo najłatwiej trafić. Strzelasz do ustania zagrożenia i jeśli tylko możesz, to spierdalasz. Wzywasz policję i wykonujesz dokładnie wszystkie polecenia. Jestem też ciekaw, jak byś się tłumaczył przed sądem, że z jednej strony napastnicy stanowili śmiertelne zagrożenie, a z drugiej miałeś czas celować w nogi. Jest taka stara mądra maksyma dotycząca szabli, ale broni palnej tyczy się tak samo: nie dobywaj bez potrzeby, nie chowaj bez krwi. Zwykle, jeśli nie strzelasz tak by jak najskuteczniej powstrzymać zagrożenie (czytaj zabić, bo w praktyce do tego to się sprowadza), to nie było jeszcze powodu żeby otwierać ogień. Oczywiście są wyjątki, ale generalnie tak to wygląda. Już pomijam, że jak ktoś chce się bronić przy użyciu broni palnej, to najpierw co najmniej dziesiątki godzin treningu, obowiązkowo. Pozdrawiam

In short: In practice, for ordinary, normal citizens, there are two types of gun permits: collector's and sporting. For a collector's permit, depending on the voivodeship (Poland is divided into 16 voivodeships, a bit like the USA is divided into 50 states), you will get 10-15, and for a sports permit you will get 4-8 so-called promises, i.e. specific, individual permits for the purchase of one weapon arts. So if you have 5 promises, you can buy 5 pieces of any weapon that your type of permit allows. If you want more, you have to ask for more promises. For sports, they almost never give more than 8, and never less than 4. Sometimes you can even get over 20 for collectors' items. And now specific types of weapons: For a sports permit: Any repeating or semi-automatic firearm, full auto prohibited, maximum caliber 12mm. That is, any normal weapon, except large-caliber sniper rifles. So you can buy an AR15, but one with semi-automatic fire, without the possibility of switching to full-auto fire. For a collector's permit: Any repeating or semi-automatic firearm, full auto prohibited, maximum caliber 20mm. In addition, flash, alarm and pneumatic weapons are not available without permits (most are). The main differences between these permits: A sports permit obliges you to take part in shooting "competitions" at least once a year, and allows you to carry a loaded weapon with a cartridge in the chamber, but should be as concealed as possible. It requires being a member of any shooting sports club, usually the annual membership fee for the club is several to several dozen dollars. Allows you to have several weapons. A collector's permit does not oblige you to anything other than being a member of a collector's club, where the annual fee is usually a symbolic few dollars. You don't have to take part in any competitions. You cannot carry a loaded weapon (the magazine, if full, must be outside the weapon, the chamber empty). You can have 10+ weapons, including the largest caliber. I hope I helped. PS. Unfortunately, in terms of defense, bullshit was said in this film. YOU CAN LEGALLY KILL IN DEFENSE. And there is no penalty for it, as long as someone defended life, health or property, and the reaction was not exaggerated. However, there is an automatic trial to check if you didn't broke the law. So in general, you can kill in defense of life, health, property. Regards

@@ThomasJ.StonewallJackson Wow sir, I must say that I am impressed with your willingness to provide so much detail. Thank you very much.

Do you live in Europe?

They are not a very diverse country which usually leads to less violence!

Demographic. Look at western europe and their high crime rate also they crime rates are at öeast in germany artificially doctored to be lower than they actually are police complain about that rather regularily.

The communists haven't only disarmed the whole country, but they stayed long enough to convince new generations that guns are a thing to avoid. That's why in Poland many people still believe that getting a license and a legal gun is just impossible. While in fact it is easier than getting a driver's license and a car.

The laws are strict, but the gun ownership in Poland in 2022 has sky-rocketed anyway. I can see it growing in every single measurable aspect. It won't just stop now, because you have fresh gun owners introducing new people to guns and they want to have it too.

In Poland the regime and its puppets regime holders (police, army etc)will be owned easier private weapons now - they're preparing new laws - citizens(slaves) ofcourse will not get but criminal regime will. This is tyranny at its finest. This is what this fake democracy is basically totalitarian tyranny. Democracy will fastly get you disarmed and in slavery like in Poland.

Hello MisterBaron and thanks for the comment. Here's a website that Łukasz has sent to me for more information about becoming a legal owner here in Poland. www.braterstwo.eu/faq It is in Polish but google should translate it for you. If you can read Polish, than no need for that. I encourage you to subscribe to this channel and send it over to your brother so he can see (and get him to subscribe too😉) Any other questions do feel free to ask!

You can ask questions about Polish gun laws and I will answer them.

Hello Chris and thank you for the comment. Where do you live in Jersey? My fam is down by the Shore in the LBI area. I brother in law is a legal gun owner and comes from Ohio (he now lives in Jersey too). He said the same thing that he won't be owning any guns here due to the ridiculous process. How is Murphy doing? Just won re election by the skin of his teeth.

Suppressors are a grey area. By law a gun designed to be used with a sound suppressor is classified as "especially dangerous". Which requires a difficult to get license. However almost all guns can be fitted with a suppresor in some way. It would mean that the police is breaking the law when registering most guns. Sound suppressors alone are not considered "important gun parts" on their own and can be made and can be owned, no law says you can't. Except gun shops are not allowed to sell "sound suppressors" to regular gun owners by a different law that regulates them specifically. Many gun shops now sell them as "multifunction muzzle device" or a "hearing protection muzzle device". So it is a complete mess, but some people have been using these for 2-3 years now and nobody is getting sued yet so I guess we are good.

@@tadeuszbanku2329 Sorry that it is in Polish but chrome can translate it for you. Also, you would have to check how to export a firearm from the USA and import it to Poland which I am sure is a rather complicated process. You will also need a firearm license here in Poland and I am not sure if you can get one unless you are a permanent citizen. I have a Temporary Stay Card and I do not think I am allowed to buy or own a firearm at the moment until I upgrade my immigration status to a more permanent one which will take some time (years). Hope this helps.

@@thepolandexperience4268 I could get citizenship as both my parents are Polish. Thank you for finding this for me!!!

@David I don't agree with what you said. That if I kill an attacker who enters my home armed with a knife, club or gun, I will be tried as a murderer? What is Necessary Defense? Necessary defense consists in repelling a direct and unlawful attack against any good protected by law (Article 25 § 1 of the Penal Code). A person who acts within this defense is not committing a crime.

Hello A.M.Z and thank you for your comment. Can you show us the Polish law where it states this? I have heard this from many many people that I have talked too about this issue. That if you do indeed kill someone with a gun in self defense, protecting your home, you will go to jail for murder. Please provide solid evidence to show the opposite if it is indeed true. Your input here is appreciated. As you know, this is very strange for me to hear as a American, where we have the right to defend our selves in many many cases. Thank you for watching and I encourage you to subscribe to the channel.

@@thepolandexperience4268 Nevertheless, it's better to be sentenced by three than carried [in a casket] by four, so you now my choice.

@@thepolandexperience4268 maybe you heard this because most of polish dont have guns, dont know the self defense laws, by the way because its a safe place....

What could I have done better? Will be doing a video similar to this in the near future and would love some feedback.

Poland is a great country too and they tend to be pretty moderate when it comes to firearms

Well, in Poland you don't need to always keep looking behind your back and constantly watch for threats around you. You can relax even when walking past midnight across any city. Maybe with exception to driving as it sometimes feels like a racetrack. Guns in Poland are not necessary for your survival. They are considered only either a really weird hobby or a full-time job. Violent crime is so rare it makes national news when it happens and the whole country talks about it for a few days. I am telling you this even as a holder of three separate gun licenses in Poland, who is legally allowed to conceal carry with one in the chamber. I still find it more useful to carry a spring knife or folding knife considering how many letters and packages I open daily. However if the situation changes someday I would probably carry a gun daily if that what's necessary for safety. It is the same with swords, so just because in Poland I can legally carry anywhere a big two-hander sword strapped to my back doesn't make any sense to do so at the current time. USA has a huge violence problem, but it is completely unrelated to guns. Your society is a mess and more guns will not fix that. It probably won't make it worse, but it won't do shit to help either.

@darek4488 Anyone who would trade freedom for security deserves neither. You also don't have the world's largest Drug Cartels on your border. Your society is smaller and more homogeneous. You lack the ability to "God Forbid" keep your government in check and before you spout the narrative about fighting against fighter jets like our dumb ass president, remember that the Taliban didn't need them to throw us out of their country. You are literally advocating for your own government to restrict your rights. Let a few million migrants enter your country illegally and your cities will be like Paris or London. Then ask yourself if you'd like more restrictions on your right to defend yourselves and your loved ones.

@@usmcmma Considering you have the means to stop the government. Why nobody stopped it when the NFA was written, or when the TSA was introduced or when the PRISM was discovered? I guess quoting B. Franklin wasn't much of a fight. FBI is wiretapping more than 1% of US population without any warrant, BATFE is effectively the law on guns and they do whatever they want. Your rights are slowly melting away. The freedom of speech in USA has fallen into the private hands of the few. The US general public is menetally just as unfit to confront the government as the Polish one. They both have surrendered. The tools won't change that. These countless braindead zombies don't really have much of their own free will left and they don't understand anything. It's getting just like in the movie Idiocracy. They will do anything for the government to take care of them. And unfortunatelly I am not very optimistic on that changing anytime soon unless the whole system fails first and some people starve to death.

Hello. I not know the answers to these questions. I would contact customs and search on their website.

Do it please. God bless from America

Everybody in Poland thinks it is impossible to get guns here, while it is actually easier than getting a driving license and registering a car.

We are not restrictive - our tyrants and opressors are. If you look how much money they're stealing from us and sharing among themselfs then its not that difficult to figure it out WHY THEY DONT WANT FOR POLISH PEOPLE TO OWN WEAPONS... They're scared of slave rebellion. The day they would say "open carry" for everyone it would be the last day of their power. Those thiefs perfectly know that.

Hey Elijah. Thank you for the comment. I really appreciate your honesty here and encouraging me to make better content. Being new at this (making video content) is a real challenge and in the moment I don't always know how to react. Maybe it was nerves, maybe I was thinking about the next question or something and didn't quite hear the answer or missed something. I do wish that your experience here was better and would like to ask you if you could tell me in a few words how I could be a better interviewer. I can see from your channel that you don't really create much content but you must watch a lot of youtube and as a viewer (consumer) have some points to make. Thank you!

🤣 and here I live in a red state where everyone owns guns and I feel safe because all the gun owners are law abiding citizens who scare off the real criminals. Who would want to rob a store when everyone in it is going to have a gun? A deterrent. That's what gun rights are.
