You may apply for arms and munitions licenses if you need them for ... sports, art, fireworks, and engineering

Council Defines Arms Licenses for Civilians

The Council of Ministers passed a sub-decree Friday allowing for the licensing of very limited arms and munitions by civilians.

Under the new sub-decree, civilians can apply for licenses of arms and munitions for sports, art, fireworks, and engineering.

The licensing follows the passage of the Cambodian Arms Law in April 2005 and the subsequent closure of several weapons reduction programs.

Article 4 of the Arms Law prohibits weapon possession, ownership and transport by civilians.

I think this Arms Law is mainly for the high ranking officials or anyone who is the same side as Hun Sen. A law to just make legal for them to carry arms. I bet if you are with SRP you probably have a hard time getting the gun permit approved by the gov't.

Well, don't tell them that you are with the SRP when you applied for a license, duh!
