Sweden is fooked. Check out the gang problem there and the associated regular bomb attacks.

not 100% sure on all the laws but the gun ownership rate is very high, one of the highest in Europe.

hunting is pretty commonplace and as long as you have a hunting license you can buy a gun legally. sure I read something a while back that in the last year or two they'd changed the classifications to allow semi automatic weapons like AR-15s under a hunting license which seems an odd move.

wouldn't be surprised is, similarly to post-Hungerford & Dumblane here, there's a push to make it harder to own guns after this

Highest rate of gun violence in the EU apparently. Looks like a normal angry person school shooting (though sounds more like a college than a school really).

Dont they do mental health checks before they let people rock about with Assault Rifles?

IIRC, the one in Plymouth had a license for a gun too?
