You can find the the gun Laws in Chapter 6

ARTICLE V. FIREARMS

Sec. 6-121. Permit Required.
No person shall carry any pistol, revolver, rifle, shotgun or any other firearm within the boundaries of The Mohegan Reservation for any purpose unless said person has been issued a permit to carry such firearm by The Mohegan Tribal government. Provisions to apply for and issue such permit may be enacted at some later time, at the discretion of The Mohegan Tribal Council.
