12. There has been a PROLIFERATION of islamist terrorist attacks worldwide this Ramadan

Fri Jul 8, 2016, 07:21 AM

Jul 2016

There's been a spike of killings from Bangladesh to Saudi Arabia (where there's gun control).

Have you already forgotten about San Bernardino and Orlando? Brussels and Paris?

Example of a control on firearms with terrorist attack: Saudi Arabia:

In Saudi Arabia there is no legal market for firearms.

However, many types of firearms are available on the black market, from 22lr pistols to fully automatic light machine guns like RPD and RPK. Their prices in the black market are approximately four or five times the average market price. The price for an AK47 ranges between $2,500 to $10,000 depending on the type and manufacturer.
