Yes and another thing our premier is trying to push through is to stop us reloading our own ammunition I don't know but our shooting fraternity here is weak with no clout like the NRA and the 2nd amendment.
The deputy police commissioner said " If you are not using your rifle then hand it in to us!" yep I'm going to hand in my No.4 Sniper T to them because I rarely use it just to give it to you for nothing.
I know for a fact there are 26 50 cal's licensed in this state not sure on what they are offering but I heard a figure of $5.5K or possibly market value.
And another stupid thing this D-*** muppet said on T.V is this "Every illegal firearm started out as a licensed one" OMFG you cannot make this stuff up the illegal guns are just getting more expensive with various methods of them being brought in mainly from the ocean, but no legal owners must suffer.
They made a big splash about 2022 and the 20 gun related deaths in our state well how many have died in cars and been maimed, I've never seen or heard anyone running down the street with a 50 Barret or a 375 Chey-Tac in West Au ever, no they have singled us out.

Some more fuel to the firearms debacle we are now going to be physc tested, have to renew or property permission to shoot farm letters every 2 years.
Farmers are also being scrutinised as to the amount of personnel they have listed to shoot vermin on their property/ies if to many are listed then they will be saying to the farmer why do they need a firearm!

All this amounts to for me is making me disillusioned as to why our forbearers went to war for to stop this subjugation of ppl so we could enjoy our freedoms which included the sport of hunting and shooting which our country has a very long and distinguished history of.
I hope I've perched it if China ever decides to walk in here as there will be no militia to help our armed forces out because they took our weapons from us.
