I am agreed with the goodboy_mentor . It is very very difficult to have a handgun legally for self defence. How strict the rules are, had never prevented crimals and terrorists getting the type of firearm they want.
They can have the firearm with them whatever firearm they want.
All the restrictions are for the law abiding citizens.
In USA a person can get the firearm of his choice legally, but in India it is never possible. Are we born in Wrong country. We are law abiding citizens but can not get a handgun legally.
Thanks and regards
