My guess would be that the possession of weapons by Palestinians in
the occupied territories, is regulated by the Oslo accord. This
agreement regulates a number of issues in the area, for example
Israeli settlement construction and the mandate of the PA police force
and their weapons.

I Norway, such a possession would be illegal, except for people with a
proper license. To obtain a license to possess certain types of guns,
you would typically need to be a registred hunter or member of a
shooting club.
