Lol, I wanted to say that the last time that I was in England, I stayed with a wonderful guy in Shropshire, and he had an entire room in his house filled with trophies and guns that had been owned by his father, his grandfather, and I don't know what all. If you got poking around in there, you probably would have found a Brown Bess. It was called, no surprise, the Gun Room. In fact, when Galadria and I arrived, his lovely wife said that "He is in the Gun Room." when we asked about him. So, Europeans are armed, just the upper classes.
