In Kashgar Prefecture, in China controlled Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, people armed with knives managed to kill 15 people, including cops, before they were finally stopped by people armed with guns!

Of course those people armed with guns were state employees, cops.  The cops shot and killed six knife wielding “terrorists” and captured eight others.

In China individual ownership of guns is illegal.  Only those individuals who can prove then need to hunt for survival are allowed to own a gun.  Guns are allowed for military, police and state authorized organizations.

Punishment for illegal ownership of a gun ranges from a minimum of 3 years in prison to being executed!
