Firearms are most definitely legal in Norway. Although there's a total ban of automatic weapons for civilians, Norway has a large population of hunters, and they have semi-atomatic and bolt option rifless, as well as shotguns. A recreational shooter is limited to four handguns. A person must first document his use for a gun, such as hunting or sport shooting; self-defense is almost never accepted as a reason for owning a gun. To own a rifle or shotgun, the person must be "sober and responsible" and 18 years or older. To own a handgun, you must be at least 21. You must also have a clean police record to own a gun. At this point, there's been no public demand for a requirement of a concealed carry permit.
