Hello, this may have come up before.
Would it be possible for me to travel to the USA and buy a gun to shoot myself?
I don't know how difficult or easy it is to buy a gun in tbe USA, the perception is that it is easier than in Europe.
Once I bought a gun I would cbt by gunshot.

Ask chat GPT if you can't simply read information on the internet about gun buying laws in america on google.

You cannot purchase a gun unless you have an immigrant visa, so you would have to be moving permanently to the US.

This has come up many times before. You have the search unlocked and should be able to look for threads.

Non-US citizens can not buy guns in the US. Your only hope is to find a private sale and hope they don't ask questions.

It depends on the state. I don't want to give away my location but I could walk into a store right now and buy a gun in my state. They'd probably do a background check but it would be instant and I could walk right out with the gun. Some states have restrictive gun laws and you have to jump through a lot of hoops to buy a gun. in some states it's very difficult for a private citizen to buy a gun.

You would have two problems:
1. You are not an American citizen. They might not sell you a gun. I've never checked into this.
2. Bringing a gun from the USA into a country where it is illegal to own a gun could get you into a lot of trouble. Customs does check for things like this.

Would i be able to join a shooting range and cbt there?
This is going to heavily depend on where you go. While access to a shooting range is less strict than purchasing a gun, it really depends on the state and local laws.

your best bet in my opinion would be to forge a pact with someone here who has a gun and you can work out the details then

I would shoot myself in tbe Usa so no need to bring the gun back.

It's not so easy getting a gun in the US. I live here and most states have law and regulations about how to go about getting a gun legally. Unless you go through the black market or private sales or another illegal form of purchasing a firearm, getting a gun as a non US citizen is very difficult.
