zzzz Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 But it is not easy to get, unless you know somebody. I'd bet at least 80% of the firearms in private hands in Thailand are owned illegally. Source? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCorinthian Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 That was an interesting article. I know of only three farang in LOS that own personal guns legally. I know a few that have them illegally and a who shit ton of Thais that have them both ways! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzzz Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 The article states : "On paper, they will ask, 'Have you been threatened by other people?' And let's say you say, 'Yes.' Then it would be harder for you to get a gun, because they will know you are actually going to use that to kill someone," Polpatr says. Being threatened by other people is a good reason to have a gun, not the other way around. Where I live in the USA they will not ask this question if you just want to buy a gun. However, if you want a special license to carry a concealed pistol, they will ask for a justification. And your justification may be that you have been threatened by other people and you need to carry a concealed weapon to defend yourself, So this rule in LOS is opposite to what you find in USA.

The_Munchmaster Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I have a big weapon concealed in my underpants at all times. When it comes to personal safety you can never be too careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
