how many countries have the RKBA embedded in their constitutions?


Mexico has it in its Constitution. It has been “interpreted” to mean that Citizens have the right to arms, if they make at least two trips to Mexico city to submit an application and buy a gun at the one and only official gun store.

So much for a Constitutional guarantee with out the cultural will to back it up.

The inhabitants of the United Mexican States are entitled to have arms of any kind in their possession for their protection and legitimate defense, except such as are expressly forbidden by law, or which the nation may reserve for the exclusive use of the army, navy, or national guard; but they may not carry arms within inhabited places without complying with police regulations.
Article 10 of the Mexican constitution. Construed as a “positive” right granted by the government with several caveats, rather than our “negative liberty” format in the Second Amendment (to wit, RKBA “shall never be infringed”, albeit turned into a parchment guarantee by the left in many places).
