[QUOTE="klein, post: 664735, member: 23950"] My argument was, they are more lienent then Canada, where handguns are forbidden ! And the following will show, thier law is stupid, since they can resell the guns they purchase legally. : Generally, citizens are restricted by law to: [LIST] [*][I]pistolas[/I] (handguns) of .380 auto or .38 Special revolvers or smaller in either case, [*][I]escopetas[/I] (shotguns) of 12 gauge or smaller, with barrels longer than 25 inches, and [*][I]rifles[/I] (rifles) bolt action and semi-auto. [/LIST] Handguns in calibers bigger than those mentioned above are forbidden from private ownership. Examples of firearms that are legal for citizens to own include .380 ACP pistols (such as the [U][COLOR=#0066cc]Glock 25[/COLOR][/U]); .38 Special revolvers, [U][COLOR=#0066cc]12 gauge[/COLOR][/U] shotguns (no short-barreled shotguns are allowed) and rifles in any caliber up to .30 caliber. Permits for the transportation and use of such non-military caliber firearms are issued for one year terms by SEDENA ([I][U][COLOR=#0066cc]Secretaría de la Defensa Nacional[/COLOR][/U][/I]) and may be applied for up to 10 firearms, total, for each designated and planned use that is legally authorized. These uses may include hunting or shooting at a club or national competition. Permits are very easy to obtain, but may be only obtained by citizens belonging to a shooting club. There is only one legally authorized retail outlet in Mexico City: UCAM ([I]Unidad de Comercialización de Armamento y Municiones[/I]), run by the Army and able to sell firearms. It is owned by, and is part of, the government. Although there is no legal limit on how many firearms an individual can own, once any individual has purchased ten firearms from the only retail governmental outlet, he cannot get a permit to buy any more. However, private party sales are legal and are largely uncontrolled, and wealthy gun-collecting citizens thus can legally buy more firearms from other private owners. [/QUOTE]
