In my country, to own a gun, you need:

- a membership from a shooting range
- you need to be active in the shooting range (at least a dozen times a year)
- you need to take an exam every 5 years
- you need to pay extra tax every 5 years
- your doctor needs to sign a weaver that you are capable of owning a gun
- you need a special cage to store your gun
- you need a signature of every person over 18 years old, living in your house
- certain calibers are just illegal, no normal civillian can own them... Period (it's pretty hard to own a firearm other than caliber 6 and 9 mm)
- the amount of ammunition you can own is limited (i think you can have 10.000 cartridges as a private citizen)

So it's basically almost impossible to own a gun legally (many people own guns illegally tough). However, gun related deaths are pretty low.

EDIT: even after all these thing, the government can change gun controll laws whenever they want. If you stop complying to the new laws, you have to turn in your firearm with the police for free, even when you bought it legally... (this actually happened on two occasions the last couple of years)

Gun should only be given to those people who can comply this law.
So that we can avoid incidents on gun fire.

Uh, huh, because terrorists dont get guns, if its illegal.

Agent Charles Mulham tossed his head as he asked, Where to begin?

I replied, How about with how much handguns go for on the black market?

Agent Mulham said, Well, a quality pistol like a Glock might go for double or triple retail. Lower-quality guns, however, are often worth only $100 or $200 more than retail.

Agent Mulham and the other two agentsJohn Curtis and Jason Zamaloffall weighed in and agreed there is no precise formula for what handguns go for on the street, but basically guns are so readily available the black-market price is typically just a few hundred dollars more than retail.

A few hundred dollars doesnt seem like much of an incentive to tempt a licensed gun dealer into going to the dark side. I commented that even for double or triple retail someone with a business to lose would be an idiot to risk a felony conviction by trying to sell guns under the counter for such profits.

The agents lost their poker-face expressions for a moment as they nodded agreement.

Agent Mulham said, Sometimes an employee might steal guns or something, but gun store owners are rarely the problem.
