After you are judged to be worthy, you are finger printed, photographed and allowed to purchase a small caliber pistol and a box of bullets (just one).
In the US (at least in VA) you show two forms of ID, fill out a simple form and select your weapon of choice, then mail order your ammo from the cheapest vendor.
Obviously, the Mexican system is superior. Compared to the gun-slinging, bullet riddled, OK - Corral style life we lead here in the US, Mexico is a haven of peace and quiet. A society in which the law is followed to the letter and the police are respected as keepers of the peace. Let's listen to our esteemed friend, President Calderone, and end the private sale & ownership of firearms int he US, then sit back and watch as peace and sanity return to our streets.
