Thread: Very Powerful Firearms

Not NZ, but have a read and a laugh/cry anyway. State of it in Western Australia.

I mean, all those long range shooters committing atrocities in Aus have been a problem for years.

aussie firearms laws are made my muppets.
Draconian restrictions including calibre limits for pistol clubs etc.
did I say Muppets?

Aussies, no surprises there

Well at least we don't have to put up with that rubbish ….Yet, problem is we follow Aussie like sheep in a lot of things so no doubt it will come here in one form or another.
Having to justify what you own and use and for what is a crock of shit as far as I am concerned. As long as you have the relevant licenses for the rifles you own and are a fit in proper person ( you would have to be to get a license in the first place) then this is just a case of the police dictating what the civilian population can and can't do.

no wonder sharks keep eating those bastards.

I am not familiar with Australian firearms legislation but I am the proud owner of some very powerful firearms so seeing as how I live close to the West coast I may wander down and thumb my nose at the twerpy ocker that wrote that letter.

tHUMB them to hell

Wave some yellow paper at them if you really want to make a point @Rushy

Be afraid ,very afraid.
We follow (blindly oftentimes) Australians rules, regulations and standards more often than not....we just lag behind a few years.

Dead right- OSH is a great example. Totally outa control over there apparently

Timely reminder to accept and defend all shooting sports, even ones you are not into. My question is where will they eventually draw the line? 1000m? 500m? 100m?

WA has some very strange firearms laws...

Traveling to Aus for comps is pretty hard, lots of paperwork and runaround.

Going to WA is at a completely different level of madness, a lot of the Aus guys I shoot with don't bother competing in WA

WA nkers
