Headlines of “ End of Duck Shooting “ is what will get the large sector of procrastinators , deniers , and uneducated firearms owners off their fat arses and actually start doing something and hopefully start making some noise about the stupid new laws .
Finally it has started to dawn on average guy .

A few weeks ago our lawyers were looking carefully at the Police Minister’s definitions of newly prohibited ammunition. One category – termed “enhanced penetration ammunition” – likely includes all steel shot in shotgun cartridges. The definition reads: “Projectiles that have a steel or tungsten carbide penetrator intended to achieve better penetration.”
I’m no lawyer in fact I may be a criminal as I have a box or two.
But.
Im sure that steel shot is not used to infancy penetration but used because greenies wanted it, I think it reduces it effectiveness.
But well done Colfo for trying.
