Guns in the Philippines

Im just not wired to stand around while some thugs do ungodly things to the people I love. Im more of a \"kill em all and let God sort them out\" kind of guy. Its looking more and more as if the Philippines isnt in my future.

Don\'t give up on anything, bud! I\'m as much a \"gun nut\" as you (7 yrs US Army, Service Rifle competitor for decades after military, NRA Life Member) But I think you\'ll be making a large mistake if you give up before trying.
Try not focusing on that one thing for a while. Believe me, if you need to arm yourself, there is a way. You mentioned alternate weapons. I just came back from a trip and brought back more than 20 beautiful, sharp, high quality knives in several sizes/configurations. In northern Luzon they are well known for their high quality blades, of all sizes, up to samurai style. You won\'t have to do without anything. You just won\'t be able to strap on your six-shooter and walk down the middle of the street ala \"High Noon\". ;) ;D

I could probably live with that. Lead tends to dance around inside cement structures, and in close quarters, even small calibre rounds can zip right through someone. I may have to hit you up for your source for those blades. :D

I been checking around and phils prices are close to the US. The Armscor stuff is the same price at Ali Mall in QC as it is in Vegas. Friend of mine has 5 of the ar15/m16 flavor. One was a former Vietnam navy seal issue m16a1 with a lot of mall ninja accessories added on to it. There are also the Danao Guns although I would stick to shopping at the local gun shop you can find on Sulit pretty easy.
Got to fire a lot of pretty neat toys last year over in Phil\'s, full auto glock pistols, suppressed full auto m16, ww2 era m1 carbines, new Armscor shotguns. We shot up a lot of bowling pins that day.
Getting a 12ga Armscor when I go home for good in a couple months. As for accessories, I can fabricate what I want in my shop.
I been told its 2 days, 6k pesos and 2 passport pics for the wife to get one, plus the 15k purchase price.
Failing that, get yourself a slingshot or bow and arrow. No paperwork required there.
