Hi and welcome to the board...

As far as bringing firearms into the country - I'm not certain if its possible or not.

To own a gun here you need to get a licience - it is possible to get this through a gun club (Nicke and me here are members of the Kathu Shooting Range) - membership is 2000 Baht/year and they can apply for a licince for you. However as a farang you would only be permitted to keep you gun at the range (as BM Lightemup here does).

I've not heard of farangs shooting game in Thailand - certainly seen locals with shot guns out in the rubber - so presume it does go on.

Newcastle Brown is about to go on sale here - not cheap as its and import, so you expect priced 180-200Bhat.

Good luck with your move over.
