Posted this on another board but nobody had any answers.

I was wondering what kind of gun laws are there on Indian (Native American) reservations. I know because of certain sovergienty laws they can operate casinos on their land in states where others cannot, sell certain things like fireworks (to use a stereotype), grow plantsfor religious purposes and have exemption or exceptions from different laws.

What about gun laws? Can they buy/own whatever they want? Registration/background rules? Can we buy guns there? What about taking them home from the reservation. Anyone know about this kind of stuff? Just wondering and looking for ways not to be denied my Constitutional Right to own whatever type of guns I cam afford. If any can appreciate people have guns do stop"tryanny" it would be the Native Americans. Too few guns Too late in the game. I'm not saying taking over was right or wrong, it happened and we can't change it. That is NOT the issue here. I want to know about the gun laws stuff only.
