Darra Adam Khel

A city entirely devoted to illegal gun production.

The city of Darra Adam Khel is situated in Khyber Regency, south of the city of Peshawar and close to both the infamous Khyber Pass and the Afghan border. It's generally regarded as the largest illegal gun market in the world – some even consider the city to be the largest gun market in the world period, and the city truly stands up to this title. Seventy-five percent of the population are involved in the gun business, and gun shops seem to be the sole market keeping the city alive.
