No, I officially live in the US and I am certainly not allowed to own a gun. You need to be an American citizen or have a green card.
 
Not in a million years... why are you actually considering this? For protection? Actually a ridiculous post!

Buy pepper spray if you want protection...
 
Yes for personal protection. People in USA who live there permanently can buy guns with producing just driving license in certain states. So as a foreigner anyone know exactly what the status is?
 
I think there is an exemption for hunting and that's about it - you would need some sort of permit for your hunting trip and then you can poses a firearm.
 
I am planning to visit Arizona and would like to get few guns for personal safety. If i be staying in usa for few months can I do that? thanks

Lol makes me think of the matrix corridor scene.

For only a few months even if you could get hold of a firearm would multiple items really be necessary?
 
Hi, can I have a pack of Juicy Fruit and that pretty 12-gauge shotgun you have, ya that one beside that pack of condoms, i'll take those too. Have a nice day :)

Nonimmigrant aliens who possess a valid hunting license or permit lawfully issued by a state in the United States.

As long as you can get a license then Arizona state law says it's fine. However:

Also, non-citizen cannot purchase a firearm from a federally licensed firerams dealer unless they have been a resident of their state for 90 days.

So you have to be living in Arizona for 3 months for anyone to be able to sell you a gun. But after that if you have a hunting license then you can carry any machine gun you like concealed down your trousers wherever you like in Arizona liek a true American :rolleyes:
 
Theres also probably different laws on owning and carrying a weapon (concealed or otherwise) in a public place.

EDIT: Beaten sort of :S
