Mylove, are you asking why it is relatively easy for Americans to buy pistols in the United States, and almost impossible for citizens of Asian countries to buy them in their own country? Or are you asking why a citizen of an Asian country cannot buy a pistol in the United States?

I first ask, in what way can Asia buy pistol? You buy? Or no?

Thanks!

Mylove, that depends on the state you are in, and also on whether or not you are a legal resident. A foreign national here on a temporary visa, for example, normally cannot purchase a handgun.

Very true, Pistol. But even if it were possible, what country is gonna let you bring it back with you when you go home?!

Mylove, what country are you from? What kind of gun do you want to buy?
Why do you want to buy a gun here?

Oh, this is just great! My wife just asked me what I was doing, and I foolishly blurted out "just sending an e-mail to mylove."

Looks like it's the spare bedroom for me tonight.
