Hi, I'm new to guns and wanting to get into some casual target shooting. Any help appreciated. =)
1. Can non-American citizens legally buy handguns in the US? I'm an Australian citizen and I'm currently in Australia, but plan to move to America to work.
2. Where can you shoot guns? Only in target ranges or can you set up a target in your backyard? (Just checking)
3. Is it possible to shoot a handgun in each hand accurately without damage to your wrists? What are the best handguns for this? 9mm? 10mm?
4. How many handguns can you legally own? It's probably different for different states right?
5. What are the rules for owning semi-automatic weapons like AK-47s and Mac10s? Can you buy and own them legally?
6. What is the cheapest calibre to shoot? How much roughly do rounds cost?
7. What is the difference in difficulty in shooting between 10mm and 9mm? What about the price differences?
8. Generally what are the rules in the different states? Like in New York, Chicago or Los Angeles, can you carry guns around with you? (If I work in the US, it'll probably in a major city =))
I've got a couple more questions that'll depend on the answers to the above. Thanks very much. =)
