Is there anything like that in Europe? I would think that some WWII era weapons would be quite plentiful there LOL.

In Finland, you cannot own a fully automatic weapon. Some pistols under certain size, that can be hidden in your pocket, are banned aswell.
Bolt-lock, and half-automatic rifles are alllowed, but you need a good reason, or a good collection to get a permit for them.
But i think the authorities don´t like people owning WW2-era weapons, most that i have seen on sale, are deactivated, and even they cost quite a lot. I.e K98 DEKO costs round 500-600 euros. No idea how much a working one does.
