The Queen has sod all to do with it, as the Monarchy these days is purely symbolic & a money making attractor of foreign tourists.
Take what the NRA says in this article with a large pinch of salt, as it's full of omissions, inaccuracies & use of information out of context.
Put it this way: If I suffer a home invasion right now & one of those involved comes at me with a hammer or knife, then he'll be met with a 130gr Sierra Game King & I will assuredly NOT be going to jail for doing so.
The right to self defence is alive & well in the UK:

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
