Is there a limit to the amount of firepower an American tourist is allowed to take with them, or do they just issue you an AK 47 and some RPG's when you arrive?

It was not at all like that for me Ep. Though I am disappointed that the locals there are always in the news burning US flags and rioting (making me look bad for having gone there to many of those at work ), my trip was very enjoyable.
There were very few instances of feeling that my safety was at risk and I found the general population there to be patient and accomodating.
It's a fascinating place Pakistan. Stay away from the women, booze, and the like...smile once in a while and dont expect their world to revolve around you and from my experience they'll be very good to you.
No AK required.
Is that assessment valid now with all the riots? Dont know.
