The Dunblane massacre took place at Dunblane Primary School near Stirling, Scotland, United Kingdom, on 13 March 1996, when Thomas Hamilton shot dead sixteen pupils and one teacher, and injured fifteen others, before killing himself. It remains the deadliest mass shooting in British history.Following the killings, public debate centred on gun control laws, including public petitions for a ban on private ownership of handguns and an official inquiry, which produced the 1996 Cullen Report.In response to this debate, two new Firearms Acts were passed which outlawed the private ownership of most handguns within the United Kingdom. The incident sparked a public campaign, known as the Snowdrop Petition, which helped drive powerful and effective legislation banning handguns, with few exceptions. The UK Government also instituted a temporary gun buyback programme, which many credit with taking tens of thousands of illegal or unwanted firearms out of supply - these weapons were incinerated.
Following the massacre and tighter firearm restrictions, there have been no mass shootings involving a handgun, but massacres with shotguns and rifles − such as the 2010 Cumbria shootings or the 2021 Plymouth shooting − have taken place.
