As I posted previously this is about perception of threat. The aussie rozzers have more fear of the public than even ours.
Their risk assessments have identified that these firearms are going to be used for a mass execution event. Based on power range etc.
Also as posted earlier the Canadians have just sglhitcanned a ban on weapons with a power raging over over 10k joules.
This sort of ban includes dangerous game rifles, doubles, single shots etc.
Nothing to do with reality other than fear by the authorities.
If anyone can say that someone will use 475double rifle for an armour piercing use against police they are being a walker.
The fact is they drum up enough fearfrom the publicly to think that is a reality.
The good thing is the Canadian population has the magical mix of needing firearms for food/defence way more than us with amassively bigger population (with a good jolt of US fervor), and have managed to get it shut down.
We need to be a bit more vocal
