Den svenske regering og Sverigedemokraterna har ændret kurs i tilbagekøbet af den kontroversielle AR-15-riffel og vælger frivillig indløsning i stedet for tvungen. Dette fremgår af en debatartikel i Svensk Jakt, underskrevet af flere ministre og talspersoner. Baggrunden stammer fra restriktioner efter masseskyderiet i Örebro tidligere i år.

Siden 1. august er der ikke udstedt nye tilladelser til jagt med den semiautomatiske AR-15-riffel, som er af militær type. Tidö-partierne – regeringen og Sverigedemokraterna – havde tidligere talt for tvunget tilbagekøb af våbnene, men ændrer nu kurs i en debatartikel offentliggjort i Svensk Jakt den 27. oktober 2025.

Artiklen er underskrevet af justitsminister Gunnar Strömmer (M), landsbygdsminister Peter Kullgren (KD), Liberalernas justispolitiske talsperson Martin Melin (L), og Henrik Vinge (SD), formand for justitsudvalget. De skriver: «Eksisterende tilladelser vil fortsætte at gælde, mens den enkelte vil få tilbud om frivilligt at indløse sit våben på generøse vilkår for en begrænset tid – kompensation på 100 procent af våbnets markedsværdi på købstidspunktet, plus visse typer våbenudstyr kan også indløses.»

AR-15 kom i fokus efter masseskyderiet i Örebro i februar 2025, selvom skytten ikke brugte den. Tilladelser til riflen blev givet til jægere i to år, og omkring 7000 jægere nåede at anskaffe den. Tidö-repræsentanterne begrunder tiltagene preventivt: «Det skal også bemærkes, at AR-15 har opnået en vis status i en subkultur omkring masseskyderier i andre lande – her vil vi handle preventivt.» De indleverte våben vil sendes til Ukraine.

Socialdemokraternes justispolitiske talsperson Teresa Carvalho kritiserer beslutningen: «Dette betyder, at regeringen bryder sit løfte om at forbyde det semiautomatiske, militær-lignende AR-15-våben efter masseskyderiet i Örebro. De har givet efter for SD og en lille aggressiv våbenlobby. Det er ekstremt svagt.»

Tidö parties lose majority after SD independents' defection

Sweden's Tidö parties now hold only 174 seats in parliament after former SD MPs Elsa Widding and Katja Nyberg announced they will vote with the opposition on certain issues. Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson's government is fully dependent on the two independents in key votes. Sverigedemokraterna accuses the Greens of buying the votes, which MP and the independents deny.

Social Democrats leader Magdalena Andersson distances herself from earlier strong warnings about the Sweden Democrats' threat to democracy. In an interview on SVT's 30 Minutes, she instead criticizes SD for damaging democratic discourse under the Tidö government. She points to cuts in public service and attacks on critical voices as examples.
