robblok Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Can you legally buy firearms online in this country? Of course you can.. I thought you knew so much about Thailand... guess not. For a foreigner its quite hard but Thais can get permits and own guns legally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onemorechang Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) Stupid a**. Got what you deserve. Why do you need a gun! To rob people To show off to the girlfriend. To win an argument in karaoke bar. (or fight outside) To make up for a small size in the trouser department. To keep in house so wife can kill you when she finds out about your girlfriend. To be a cop ? Just a few I can think of for Pattaya. To be a Red neck with your mates shooting bottles and cans in the woods whilst drinking beer. for Americans back home only.

alocacoc Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 There are also gun-journals to buy with hundreds of commercial and private offers to buy guns. Do someone think all the sellers ask for a license from the buyer? I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a foreigner its quite hard but Thais can get permits and own guns legally. But can you get permits for buying a gun from a Facebook seller... I'm thinking NO!

Falcon Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Price should have been a clear sign that it was a scam. At 18,000 baht it's impossible to buy anything, even a .22, let Ellen a 9mm. We have licenses for our guns, a Herrera and a browning, beretta was 50k, browning costs 75k, all legit and bought from local gun shop. Nothing wrong eith guns or having them in the house, the problem comes when the guns get in to the wrong hands. As they say, guns don't kill people, people kill people!!
