Can a landlord restrict his tenant from keeping a firearm in his rented premisies?
Depends on the law where you are, but in general, no. A tenant is permitted the "quiet enjoyment" of the property- meaning that they have the right to do lawful things on the property that do not damage it. If possession of a firearm is legal, the owner of the property would have no legal right to restrict the tenant from doing a legal thing.

Can a landlord send you a bill after you move out?
Yes. I landlord can send you a bill after you move out. If you paid a security deposit when you moved in those funds are put towards and damages that were not "normal wear and tear". If the security deposit did not cover the damages then the landlord can send you a bill for the difference. There is a loophole here that some landlords forget about. Within 30 days of moving out if your landlord is keeping your security deposit and sending you a bill he needs to send you a letter detailing the damages and the cost for repairs. The 30 days is the limit. If it was sent on day 31 then the landlord is out of luck.

Your landlord has to give you your deposit back unless he's keeping it for legitimate reason, and such reason must be listed on the paper he sends you when he intends to keep the deposit.
