Thread: Arms (Shooting Clubs Ranges and Other Matters) Amendment Bill 2024

Greetings all,
I am pleasantly surprised that I can still post to this thread but here goes.

If anybody has missed it we are in the early part of a process that will decide how we use and enjoy owning and using firearms for both hunting and on the range for the foreseeable future. Currently the ball is in the shooting ranges area but at the beginning. The really interesting part is when the Regulations appear which will give us a better understanding of the where what and how for rifle ranges. The current draft act may remove the requirement of registration or enrolment for temporary ranges. There is a section in the current Police Shooting Manual on the requirements for temporary ranges so it will be interesting to see what happens to those.
There is a section in the Manual for sighting in not done on a range. Does this come under the Arms Act?
There are a large number of people that contribute to the Forum with a lot of knowledge in this area so can we please stick to rifle ranges and leave comments on what some blogger has said to other threads.
Regards Grandpamac.
