General discussion

Hello Everyone. I am an American, I live in Quezon City, and I am interested in legally owning a handgun. I plan to purchase Springfield Armory XD(M) 9MM Compact http://www.the-m-factor.com/html/specs_1.html. I havent decided whether to purchase it in the states and bring here or try and find it in the Philippines.

My question is, can I, being American, legally own a handgun?

If so, whats the procedure for bringing it into the country?

If I cant bring it into the country and I have to purchase it here, where is the best place to buy?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

sirs,

ask ko lang po, i'm planning to buy a beretta 92S model. actually it's not brand new, and it's worth 30k. okay na po ba yung price nya? thanks in advance.

Bros, please allow me to share a blog a created and posted in my FB account as well as in Pinoyguns.com

Tough on Guns; Soft on Crime

 By: F Philip L. Mina

(Full disclosure; I’m a Filipino gun owner and a moderator of the country’s largest online gun community, Pinoyguns.com)

With the current rash of gun related crimes, citizens with legitimately owned guns are currently under siege. The seeming impotence of our law enforcement agencies to curb the rise in criminality, gun related crimes in particular, has served as a cannon fodder for people whose agenda is to take-away the guns of law abiding citizens.

The Gunless Society, politicians, and sadly some members of media who ought to know better, are painting the picture of the Filipino gun owner as an irresponsible, homicidal maniac.

These people are quick to point out the relative ease with which to own a gun is to be blamed for the increase in gun related violence. This completely devoid of logic assertion is so fatally flawed you wonder if these people are remotely aware of what the actual problem is.

Nine Myths of Gun Control

* Myth #1 "Guns are only used for killing"

* Here's the obvious: If you're a criminal - do you break into a house where a little old lady will shoot you or where a helpless victim is easy prey?

* If you're a criminal - do you care anything about the law? Obviously not! Isn't it naive to believe criminals will follow gun control laws?

In a survey published , over a third of felons questioned said they worried about being shot by their intended prey, and more than half agreed that " most criminals are more worried about meeting an armed citizen than they are about running into the police."

Dane County Judge Sumi granted a temporary restraining order Friday that blocked Wisconsin Republicans' anti-collective bargaining law from taking impact. This puts the future of the controversial legislation in jeopardy, and raises even more questions about a potential recall vote for Gov. Walker. While the legality of the GOP meeting and vote are debated, Wisconsinites are celebrating a triumph for workers' rights.

Collective bargaining argument carries on

Zuckerberg once got in trouble at Harvard for stealing co-ed data from university servers to create FaceMash. Zuckerberg was slapped with charges of data theft tantamount to identity theft. That was 2003, but Wired reports that today, a couple of activists with a courting site want Zuckerberg to find out something about information protection. The social experiment/dating site Paolo Cirio and Ludovico call Lovely Faces scraped 250,000 Facebook profiles for actual names, locations and head shots without Facebook's permission, so a lawsuit may be waiting in the wings. Facebook currently makes so much money that they probably won't need personal loans to take this company to court.
