    The reason is that the details are with the Govt to discuss and make a decision on, however after 6 months of sitting on them, the govt have decided to leave it till after the election.

    ....think you need to read between the lines in that comment: it's been left until after the election for a reason....

    Just done mine. Super easy. Took somewhere between 30-45mins to do about 15 firearms. Only one wasn't on the list and it was a new Beretta BRX1 rifle. Even the 100year old or so Side by Side was on the list. So I rang them up and sorted in about 5 mins on the phone, super helpful.

    Off topic. Mate has a Beretta BRX1. Very happy with it. Replaced a Maral which he was not happy with.

    Yeah, I really like mine. Shoots an inch or better with 178gr Precision Hunter 308. Trigger is a smidge gritty but I'll get that fixed hopefully.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    So out of interest barreled actions with no other bits are still a firearm to be registered?
    I would've thought so.

    I understand that the police don't really want them registered as it would certainly add a lot of dross to the system BUT according the legislation that is classed as a major firearm part and must be registered, so even a bare action with a serial number should be entered. So too bad, they created the system, when dealers have to register I am putting the lot in there.

    Had the pleasure of using the registry today
    Any Blaser owners with multiple barrels are going to have a real hoot. Serial stamped barrels make a comprehensive registration scenario impossible. They suggested I put my own serial on the action (once I work out what the action is on an R8) by either gunsmith, engineers stamp or do it myself with a home engraving tool wtf…
    After this enjoyable phone call my session had timed out and I lost 45 mins of painful firearm entry
    Enjoy
