(Baonghean.vn) - Despite being encouraged to surrender and collect guns, people's hunting trips still take place using homemade guns, causing many dangers.
Along with crossbows and traps, homemade guns (also known as flintlock guns) are used by many highland people for hunting. According to the Khmu people, using this type of gun can be dangerous, especially at night, but due to the habit of hunting in the mountains and forests, many families still keep this type of gun.
