But with the so-called small arms permit, citizens are allowed to own weapons, such as gas cartridge guns or signal pistols. These may also be carried outside the home.

Good news. I am glad to hear it. I was getting the impression that German men had all been neutered.

That's not "arming yourself".

Can they also get a gun that shoots out a flag that says "Bang!"?

You're right. This article about Germans "arming themselves" means nothing. Sort of like some passengers on the Titanic deciding to put on warm coats. The ship is going to sink anyway.

Yeah. Plus concealed hammer means you can git er done with it still in your coat pocket.

Not much to hang up on the car keys, gloves, etc.
