not illegal to own or carry a firearm in Shadowrun. All you have to do is
possess the proper permit.
The average man can own and carry a pistol, rifle, or shotgun, as long as the
have the proper permit and do not "threaten" people with them. Of course you
can't have automatic weapons, but seeing one of those is generally threatening.
Lisenced Security, Governmental, or Professionial (Mercanary) organizations
may possess, carry, and even use fully automatic weapons in SR as long as they
are not breaking the Law and are going about their business.
So remember, that Gun Control in incremental. The law, today or in SR, does
not bar you from bearing arms in general. They just limit which arms you are
allowed to bear in the interest of state security.
