It is a fallacy among some foreigners that just because something like a gun, a large knife, a stun-gun, a police radio or a police badge are easily bought here then it is OK to have them without licences or proper permissions. Common sense alone would say that it isn't OK and Thai law certainly says so.

And I doubt that even in Finland he would be allowed either.

Go "you good citizen in a beer bar" yep you surely have gotta watch them tattoo armed persons!!!

Tattooed arm persons carrying a gun ... that's different
