Japan has extremely strict gun control. Their gun ownership rate is 0.6 guns per 100 people,compared to the US's rate of 120 guns per 100 people. There's incredibly extensive background checks to own a gun. You have to own a shotgun for 10 years before you can apply to own a rifle. You're only allowed to own a certain amount of ammo, and new ammo can only be purchased by trading in your old empty ammo casings. New magazines can only be purchased by trading in old magazines. Each prefecture is allowed to have 3 gun stores.
Despite all that, abe. Was assassinated. The suspect used a homemade double barreled gun. There was reported a big cloud of smoke from the gun, so it was probably some homemade black powder used as the propellant.

Political assassination was common in Japan before ww2. The video clearly shows a large cloud of white smoke indicative of black powder or some homemade similarity.

No law in the world will ever stop someone from doing what they are determined to do. I'm waiting for the anti-gun crowd to push for more gun laws that only give restrictions on legal gun owners. Crickets.......

Crickets....... 2 pipes mounted to a 2x4 home made black powder , this was a trip to the hardware store and some work to make what was basically a black powder double barrel 12ga he fired both barrels and dropped it , former PM was dead there is no keeping people from making these , period
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.
