Also, even if your intentions are "very" malicious you can't shoot someone with a pistol at 50m if you dont have access to that pistol. I agree that the intention is what matters and the fact that a gun is just a tool but that doesn't mean that anyone should or must have access to a fire weapon.

The evidence locker became their new armory

[@williammeyer2584]

Actually it was all evidence for the entire duration of the movie for when it was shown till the end. The only reason Angel used it was because 1. He had no other options, 2. He needed as much firepower as possible to take down the entire town of Sanford, and 3. He wanted to look badass af. If you see in action scenes in the climax, most of not all the guns still have their evidence tags on. While the guns were not actually part of the armory during the time that the movie takes place, I think it’s a safe bet that Angel got a court order that allowed the Sanford police to use Webley’s guns for their armory considering they had none to begin with.

Guns used to be fairly common for farmers, etc. And there's a lot of leftovers hidden in stashes for if the Germans invaded in WWII.

I always thought it was part of the plot. A clue that something was going on. He literally found them - because the criminal cult had brought in heaps of weapons into the town.

[@greendemon905]

Mr. Webley mentions he found all those weapons. They probably belonged to the Neighbouthood Watch Alliance, since all their members are armed to the teeth. And in the end, sergeant Angel literally uses their own weapons against them.

I remember once moving to Devon with my dad. We saw a hill that looked perfect to walk the dog but didn't know how to get to it. So my dad stopped an old guy and asked him. His accent was so thick that we didn't understand a word he said. It sounded like gibberish. My dad kept on nodding as he was talking and thanked the guy. I'm from and currently live in Somerset and most people here have very easy to understand accents. The stereotypical Wurzels accent is very rare

[@blondepotatoboi]

I wonder if Webley was actually in charge of holding onto all those guns for the villains... there's no way he was the only one who knew about several dozen rifles in one small village. Plus it'd probably explain why he was killed, by getting the villain's weapons locked up when Angel was sent to deal with him for something completely unrelated

[@JosephOD]

he was killed cause he trimmed the hedge of Mr. Reaper (one of the NWA) the movie is making fun of how most cop movies the little crimes where somehow connected to the bigger crime. But in Hot Fuzz those people were killed for petty reasons.

Not entirely out of the realms of possibility that he just "found 'em" as he said. Happens from time to time. Probably not those types of guns. But I remember awhile back a farmer discovered an old cache of AK's and grenades from the troubles just buried on his land.

My theory of how the West Country accent came about is after the brewing of cider became more commonplace in wessex, people would just get drunk all the time and what once might have been comprehensible became mumbling due to the cider.
