[QUOTE="SMS, post: 3275859, member: 42"] Their system is not one we should be promoting as some sort of example of the efficacy of putting guns in the hands of good people. The presence and deterrence of an armed citizenry is notable and worthwhile, but not at the cost of granting control to the central "Ministry of Public Security". You can't even transfer a firearm in the country without the Ministry of Public Security approving of the transfer. [SIZE=4][B][URL]https://www.gov.il/en/Departments/General/firearm-licensing-information[/URL][/B] [B]Preconditions for obtaining a personal firearm license:[/B][/SIZE] [LIST=1] [*]An individual who is listed by the Ministry of the Interior as a citizen or permanent resident, and who has been in Israel for at least three years prior to their application for a firearm license. The Firearm Licensing Department can grant a license to a citizen or permanent resident even if they have not spent the last three years in Israel, on condition that the individual has served in the Israeli military or national service. [*]An individual with at least a basic knowledge of Hebrew – the ability to answer questions, follow instructions and complete forms as required. The applicant's level of Hebrew is evaluated by a firearm clerk. [*]Minimum age requirement: [LIST] [*]A citizen or permanent resident of Israel who has completed compulsory military service – age 18. [*]A citizen or permanent resident of Israel who has completed two years of national service – age 21. [*]An Israeli citizen who has not completed military or national service as per the above – age 27. [*]A permanent resident of Israel who does not have citizenship and has not completed military or national service – age 45. [/LIST] [*]A health declaration signed by a medical doctor. [*]Completion of the required firearm training, including theoretical exam and practical shooting requirements, as per the Firearm Training Ordinance of 2018. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
