One of the cheapest guns in the world if you buy illegally, probably cost about 60k baht for a legal second hand one

Can you legally own AKs in Thailand? I heard they were classed as "war weapons"... I hear Surin has masses and masses of serious weapons stashed away. You could probably pick up a RGP launcher and a couple of AKs for a few hundred quid... A cache of weapons like that would provide real security

They champion falsehood, support the butcher against the victim, the oppressor against the innocent child. May God mete them the punishment they deserve
