Civilians in Pakistan can own handguns, rifles, and shotguns with a license, subject to provincial and federal laws. Common calibers like 9mm, 7.62x25, and .223 are permitted. Obtaining a license involves a background check, though bribery can be a factor. Ammunition is limited to 100-200 rounds per permit. Both open and concealed carry are legal with a license, with open carry of rifles and shotguns being more common than pistols.
