Illegal possession of a firearm in the United Kingdom carries a mandatory minimum jail term of five years plus an uncapped fine.

As in Norway, it's normal to get time off for good behaviour...five years usually means out in three - three and a half.

Note it's a minimum jail term of five years - have no clue whether the type of weapon involved would mean a heavier sentence or not, but would think it more than likely...
