Hahah. Sounds like Russian chronicles, except that's Filipino Chronicles for ya. God damn your criminals are bold, the whole story sounds like a complete and utter bulletstorm. Nothing too scary for us, though, since we had more than a few encounters with people firing at each other back in Russia, but still.

Just out of curiosity, what are civilian firearms ownership and carry laws like in y'alls countries? Not trying to start a gun law debate, I'm just curious is all.

Really??! In Venezuela the standard weapon is the short .38 colt revolver. It's popular among ladies and gentlemen of all ages and social stratus, but lately as the police shifted to 9 millimeters glocks, out of pure coincidence all the robbers now appear to shift to that fashion too!
Laws? What laws?!

Well, here .45s are pretty common too. But everyone has everything. Crazy ass country.

Indeed it is...
There's a recent disarmament law on course, but it works like this. Criminals sell their guns for let's say 1000 bucks each (this is not big deal for them, they have plenty). The police destroy some, keep some and re-sell them to the criminals for about half the quantity. The cycle star over.
