An Australian businessman told me what happened to his guns
A year ago, a nice young Aussie, a real estate guy, met with me to discuss business.
The subject turned to guns, I suppose because he noticed some 50 caliber rounds decorating the top of my book shelves. They're not live.
He said, some years ago, Australia had forced the registration of all guns in private hands.
Then just a couple years ago, a nice policeman showed up at his door and demanded he turn over certain ones.
It was THE LAW, a new one just passed, and so he gave them up. They were then put through a shredder along with everyone else's that had been collected.
One of his guns taken had belonged to his grandfather and was a valued heirloom that meant a lot to him.
It didn't matter; it was confiscated and destroyed anyway.
If we don't stay on top of things, the same thing will happen here.
Regards,
Louis of PA

Same happened to me and thousands of other law abiding shooters over here. Watch the media they are your enemy, once they turn public opinion you are dead in the water. Best of luck with your fight but for this one the pen is really mightier than the sword. Dont think you are safe because of the law because they can and will change it as they have done over here.
