There is a new police shooting range just outside of town. The last time I drove past (without my camera) they were just putting on the finishing touches. This was about three weeks ago. Maybe if you ask nicely they will let you handle a gun.  surrender1 (GPS coordinates: Lat 14.97626, Lon 103.11158)

I am no expert but have read many threads on this subject elsewhere.

As I understand it, you must be a Thai citizen to have a gun license.
Many ferang's wives have gone throught training and bought firearms for protection within their home. They can legally use firearms against an indruder on their property. I have not heard of court cases involving wives guns being used by a ferang in the home and suspect money would make problems go away, if needs be.
