Austria Plans to Tighten Gun Control Rules After School Shooting

The Straits Times

June 19, 2025

Austria plans to tighten its gun control rules after a 21-year-old killed 10 people then killed himself in the country's worst school shooting by far, the conservative-led government said on June 18.

VIENNA -

The gunman, a former student at the secondary school in the southern city of Graz, owned the two firearms he used in his rampage — a shotgun and a Glock pistol — legally.

Under the current rules, the shotgun can be bought by any adult who has not been banned from owning weapons, after a wait of three working days.

The Glock requires a gun permit, for which one must be 21 or over and pass a psychological test.
