During WW2 Americans were asked to donate small arms to the UK. Funny how history repeats itself. The Brits should start getting into HEMA clubs because the Army isn't going to step in. I wish it were more popular in the US. HEMA looks like good fun, good exercise, and good community.
The NRA donated a bunch of guns and they never returned them after the war they were collected and destroyed. IIRC
I had no idea about HEMA and had to look it up:
A club is a group formed by individuals who practice Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA), which involves the study and reconstruction of European fighting techniques from historical sources such as manuscripts and treatises. These clubs serve as the primary community space where members train, grow, and build relationships through physical conditioning, martial technique drills, sparring, and the practice of related skills like target cutting. HEMA clubs can vary significantly in focus, with many concentrating on specific historical periods or weapons, such as the longsword from the Late Medieval era or the rapier from the Renaissance. Some clubs may also explore military sabre systems, stick-fighting, or even armored combat.
