Most regular police officers in the UK do not carry guns. They carry ASP Extendable batons and pepper spray. Most areas, however, have a small number of armed police on call. These units are called the Armed Response Unit (mobile patrol police) or the Specialist Firearms Unit (proactive armed police). When there is a serious manhunt in progress which involves a firearm, various equipment such as; taser guns, Attenuating Electric Batons, bulletproof shields and body armour, MP5Ks and G36s, sniper rifles, Glock 17 pistols and armoured cars may be used depending on the situation. The Rothbury Manhunt is a clear example of this.
You have the armed police section but there is also the Serious Organised Crime Agency which is the equivalent to America's Federal Bureau of Investigation. I think in the near future though, nearly probably all police in the UK, excluding Northern Ireland because they're already have armed police, will carry taser guns.
And then there is Military Intelligence-5.
most of the police in London carry mallets (the club sort of thing) and some police officers carry guns, some of these include:
the glock 22 chambered for the .40 S&W cartridge, which can hold up to 15 rounds.
Other sidearms include the Glock 17 chabered for the 9mm cartridge and has a 17 round magazine.- jbutler483
The majority of police in London (and the rest of the UK) aren't armed or have any firearms training. Incidentally, the majority of police in the UK don't want to be armed. There are highly trained firearms units which can be called upon if firearms are required. The only place you will ever see armed police patrolling is at airports which handle international flights and at certain ceremonies where the security of the officials in attendance has to be maintained i.e Trooping of the Colour
No In places like great britain where the cops are idiots they dont let us carry them but you can

They had guns because Great Britain was advanced in technology. India was not as involved in trade so they did not have the weapons the British had at the time. Britain had guns, and cannons. i like potato's!!!!!

Only Firearms Authorised Officers carry guns in the United Kingdom, and they typically are very few out of the entire police force of any given area, although there are a few exceptions in the United Kingdom where the majority or all police officers are armed, such as Northern Ireland.
