If you are a resident and pass a series of exams and tests you can have a handgun and sometimes a carry permit. A carry permit now comes with the right to have a gun. Every couple of years it has to be renewed. Normally you can have 3 handguns. I had my last application to register my last handgun and renewal of my permit rejected as I had allowed a burglar to steal a pistol from my house. Strangely enough the pistol has been recovered by the OIJ but they won't let me have it because I allowed it to be stolen. If I get it back i'd have 4 and be illegal for that. And basically you can't shoot somebody unless they have a bigger gun than you.
My thoughts on that subject so I don't waste a nanosecond contemplating imbecilic laws when my life is threatened...I'd rather be explaining myself to a judge than St. Peter...
