    Getting a QLD firearms license isn’t that hard , but it does take some time .
    You have to complete a 1 day safety course and then wait for Police clearance etc etc , you will also need to join a recognised organisation like SSAA .
    They are in no hurry to process your license, I suspect they purposely drag their heels.
    You then have to apply for a permit to acquire, but that process has speed up lately it used to take 3 weeks or more but it seems to be down to a week or less now .
    Your wasting your time thinking about your semi , forget it is my advice .
    I would also do some major research about the legality of entering Australia with your firearms without an Australian license.
    I’m not sure about what is involved with a temporary visitor license, so I can’t advise you on that .
    Also be aware that QLD has very few public hunting areas , so you need access to private property to hunt and you need a letter from that landowner to legally hunt that property .
    How long are going to be in OZ ?
    FALL IN LOVE WITH THE NUMBERS , NOT THE IDEA
