Is citizenship necessary to apply for a gun license? Technically yes-- but just about anyone can become a citizen in a matter of hours on Coconut Palm Island (citizenship is even easier to obtain than a gun).
Is a background check (criminal record, mental health) necessary to apply for a gun license? A criminal background check is conducted. Anyone with a violent felony is barred from owning a gun, but this can be appealed. Medically, a doctor with full access to a person's medical records must sign off that they are mentally stable enough to own a gun. Minor things, like marijuana use or mild anxiety, do not disqualify a person. However, mental illnesses causing a person to be violent do. Again, this can be appealed if a person feels they were unfairly disqualified.

Can civilians possess long guns? Yes
Can civilians possess semi-automatic weapons? Yes

[New Frenco Empire]

Name of nation: New Frenco Empire
Is the right to bear arms guaranteed by law? Yes if you can handle all the bureaucracy
On a scale of 0 (outlawed) to 5 (unrestricted), what is the tolerance level for gun ownership? 3. The far majority of Imperials are urban-dwellers, so being able to easily get your hands on some machine gun capable of causing untold havoc during the Saturday shopping rush at the nearby mall would make everyone a bit uneasy. However, most things from black powder historical pieces to modified semi-automatic assault weapons are allowed. Things like bolt-action hunting-style rifles, shotguns, low-wattage energy weapons (less-than-lethal laser weapons are very common, and a favored method of defending oneself in the event of a confrontation) and the like don't require any special permit. Handguns and semi-automatics require a Tier I Civilian Weapons Handling Permit. Modified assault weapons and energy weapons over a certain power output (things that can vaporize a human being in a single shot, for instance) require a Tier II. Machine guns, explosives, and anything else deemed "military-grade" require Tier III.
On a scale of 0 (impossible) to 5 (very easy), what is the ease of obtaining a gun? 3. There are a number of hurdles involved, but for a patient, law-abiding, mentally-well individual, they can easily get their hands on a firearm.

What is the minimum age for gun ownership? Youth Development Centers (which serve as both the school and home for the majority of underage Imperial citizens) don't allow weapons on campus, barring most minors from having one. Other than that, no minimum age.
Is a license/permit necessary to obtain or possess guns? Anything deemed a "Tier I" weapon or above, yes.
Is citizenship necessary to apply for a gun license? Yes
Is a background check (criminal record, mental health) necessary to apply for a gun license? Yes
Is a third-party character reference necessary to apply for a gun license? For Tier III only (need references to ensure that the license holder is a business interest or a "responsible" collector).
Are gun licenses denied or revoked for individuals with a history or risk of domestic violence? Anyone with a violent criminal record is expressly forbidden. No exceptions.
Are gun licenses denied or revoked for individuals on a government no-fly list? Yes
Do prospective gun owners have to pass theoretical or practical gun safety courses? Yes

Can civilians possess handguns? Tier I and above, yes.
Can civilians possess long guns? Yes
Can civilians possess semi-automatic weapons? Tier I (Tier II for "assault"-style weapons), yes.
Can civilians possess fully automatic weapons? Only Tier III
Which types of guns need to be registered? "In Regards to Weapons, Section 13, Chapter 4" of the Imperial Law Code requires firearm manufacturers to microchip products for the civilian market, and for retailers to link the microchip to an owner's smart device. The microchip will send messages to the owner and local police if a weapon, say, moves a hundred feet from its "designated resting place". Police will be dispatched if the owner's linked device isn't within a certain distance from the weapon, or if the weapon moves into a "high risk" location.

Can military personnel carry guns off base? Yes
Can on-duty police officers carry guns? Yes
Can off-duty police officers carry guns? Yes
Is it legal for civilians to openly carry guns in public? Yes, but many businesses wouldn't appreciate some jackoff toting around an assault rifle on their property "because he can".
Is it legal for civilians to carry concealed guns in public? Yes

What is the penalty for illegally possessing a gun? Confiscation if guilty party has no violent criminal past. Confiscation and prosecution if they have a history of violence.
What is the penalty for knowingly transferring a gun to an unlicensed individual? Prosecution, criminal recklessness if transfer is to a non-violent offender. Conspiracy if otherwise.
What is the penalty for manufacturing an unauthorized gun? Anyone who does not possess a Weaponsmith's license are subject to criminal charges if they have been discovered creating unauthorized weapons. Depending on context, charges can range from conspiracy to terrorism to treason.
Can individuals be randomly stopped and searched for illegal guns? Police can forgo search warrants if "violent and/or terroristic intent" is suspected. Though, they aren't exactly going to go out looking for guns in-specific.
Is there a program where individuals can voluntarily surrender their illegal guns in return for not being prosecuted? Yes. Additionally, individuals who have "somehow found themselves" in possession of a Tiered firearm or energy weapon can report themselves and receive the appropriate training to get licensed for it without confiscation.
What happens to guns that are confiscated or surrendered? Sometimes, they may be held for a while, and the suspect from whom they were confiscated can retrieve them once they have the appropriate license and pay a fine. Some weapons might be kept by police for training purposes, or, very rarely, some (assuming the weapons match the standards) might be restamped and issued to new officers for field service. Others are re-chipped and put up for sale in government retailers. On occasion, guns might be requisitioned by the Imperial government, where they might see a myriad of uses (rifles and handguns may be given to certified "militia", some guns might become military training tools, some might go to the IIA for shadier reasons, etc). Particularly notorious weapons (such as the rifle used by the infamous "New Roman Sniper" who killed six people (two Imperial Senators, three staffers, and a police officer) and wounded a number of others in 2103) are transferred to museums or exhibits.
