Many thanks for your detailed reply!

What about normal self-defence handguns (not electric pistols), for example revolvers and semi-auto pistols (like .32ACP, .32 S&W, 9mm, .45ACP, .38 Special, etc.)? Can one own them, carry them and use them for self-defence?

Cheers!

Well, a "real" handgun is a REAL handgun and is probably the most useful tool ever invented for self-defense!
