A world map of where you don’t need a permit to buy a gun. This belongs to a class of maps in which the US is (inexplicably, infuriatingly) highlighted and almost everywhere else isn’t. https://brilliantmaps.com/buy-gun-map/

@kottke I'm Canadian. I've always wondered if I could go to one of these places and buy a gun. If I did, and was stopped or used the gun, would I be charged with something?

I'm sure one day I will work up the energy to google it.. but this reminded me of the question.

Having lived in Canada as an "illegal immigrant"* for over a decade, yes.

You can.

It's easy peasy.

* I entered Canada legally. I just didn't leave before my visa expired.
