https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitution_of_New_Zealand : apparently NZ has a UK-style uncodified constitution. I think the only country that defines weapon ownership as a right is the US?

Off the top of my head, Mexico, Haiti, and Guatemala all have a "Right to Bear Arms" in some form. It's widely ignored in Mexico, though.

I also know that there are several countries where firearms are widely available to private citizens, both in their homes and in public, such as the Czech Republic.
