what kinds of guns are popular down under? but i also hear that ur government outlawed guns true or not
rayzor51
The most popular is the old .22 cal .222 remington 5.65mm 12 gauge for rabbits foxes and dingoes alot of hunters go for the 6mm Remington .243 Winchester for wild pigs amd small deer, and the 7 mm belted magnum 7.62mm 30.06 for larger deer and wild horses camels and buffalo.
The gun laws in Australia really suck big time
1 You must be a member of a recognised association like Sporting Shooters before you even think about getting a licence.
2 You can only get a bolt action/single shot for target or game shooting.
3 If you want the licence for hunting you must have written permission from the land holder with dimensions of the land area and exact location of the land. (you just cant ask a farmer anymore you must get all this info up front)
4 You must then pass a saftey exam both practical and oral and if you pass you must then wait 28 days to get your licence.
Don't start me on the handgun licence it is so much more restrictive.
Semi auto even in a shotgun, forget about it
Magazine capacity 5 rounds max
working replicas forget it
working models forget it
Dont come here to go shooting you would not like it. I was thinking about coming to your place for a holiday just to be able to send a few thousand rounds down range just to ease my frustation.
All because some rich nut job named Martin Bryant decided to go on a killing spree in Tasmania.
Pisses me off bigtime
greasypaws
i got ur cure just send in snake to cure your ailments
greasypaws
which state would you come to? if its washington state we could meet and i would be more than happy to take you to my gun club and break out some toys for ya
rayzor51
sorry I take so long to answer but I have to attend to my wife who has Fibromyalgia and she gets a little demanding at times.
you sure know how to make my day and break it in one sentence.
I would love to be able to come over but with the current terrorist laws in your country and mine, I dont think I would get a passport from mine let alone be able to enter your country.
Old!!!! very old!!! like 30 years old convictions and not even really serious ones still bite over here.
greasypaws
well leave ur iron home and still try for the passport anyway aint no crime in trying or is there?
rayzor51
You never know your luck. I will check it out and thanks for the invite much appreciated.
Snake
to have to kick alot of ass by the things happing in this day and age.lol
greasypaws
you can start by voting this is the place to make it count pick people that will stand for our rights but make sure they have a record of doing so first if they dont then prepare for bad times but you have to research this stuff it aint easy but then nuthin worth doin ever is
rayzor51
that's the trouble over here voting is compulsory but all the political parties are against guns and shooting, so We are kind of screwed.Wish we had a strong gun lobby, but there are no members of any party that would front it this is regarded as political suicide.
nuf said this is too depressing.
greasypaws
well then run for political office i dont know what u have there but in my case here i would run for state representative or even start at county level

Hey rayzor 51 didn't you guys used to have decent gun laws? You need a NRA type organization down their to fight for your gun rights. As for a pass port, isn't the same everywhere to apply? If you ever make it to michigan madison hts area,detroit, check out double action indoor shooting center and gun shop. They have all kinds of firearms to shoot. Rentals for an hour and all the ammo to boot.
rayzor51
Hey craigman9mm
We had good gun laws until Martin Bryant went crazy in Tasmania. No licence to own or buy a weapon or ammo except for handguns thay have always been down on that. But now we can't even own a semi- auto 22. As I said to greasypaws you cant even protect your family, if you hit an intruder breaking into your house with a 2x4 and fracture his skull, he can sue you for damages. If you kill him you are off to key city (prison)
We have a national shooting organisation called Sporting Shooters Association of Australia.(SSAA).
They have their place as a legitimate club with hunters, target , blackpowder, handgun/pistol, and western disiplines. but they don't seem to do too much towards rallying members to be active in the fight for the rights of people to own and use weapons of the type that you have in the States
greasypaws
well there u go run for a position on the board of directors and work ur way up this fall i am gonna run for a trustee position at my local gun club there are 3 trustees then range officer then secretary then treasurer then V.P. then president i know everyone that is gonna run thisw year and who is on the board now this is my first excursion into politics but if u want things to change u have to man up
craigman9mm
Hey rayzor51, u trying to tell me if someone breaks into your home with a weapon or sort, try's to mame your kids or wife, you have to stand there and watch? isn't it illegal to B&E in someones house there? Don't you guys have self defense laws or is your government that totally off the wall on human rights? All I know in michigan, I now live in Nebraska, is once someone breaks in your home and they are armed they have intent, we can blast them and ask questions later. You need to move to the states. They hell with your government!
rayzor51
We have two parties in Qld Labor and the Liberal /National Party. The National party is for the farmers and cattle owners, and pastoralist.
This party is for the country people and they wont even touch the gunlaws. We have only one independent politician in Qld and he got in by saying he would try to change the child protection laws. I have looked into the possibility of running as an independent using the gun laws as a platform and 95% of the population are happy the way things are. They seem to be quite happy to die in their homes or have their children raped or bashed and sit back and wait for the cops to show up and say how sorry they are for not being able to apprehend the culprits.
Being a colony of Britan and always bowing to the westminster system seems to have carstrated most of the men in this country.
greasypaws
well i didnt know it was a colony but you all need to tell the brits to go shag themselves but eventually ur people will come back around it happened here and now it is starting to change so keep on keepin on and still look into politics anyway that u can
Death from Above
In Texas there is a gun range in Paris Tx that you can shoot 90 recoiless rifle. You got it you shoot it.
greasypaws

rayzor51

No archery is under licencing also and you cant carry a crossbow or a hand crossbow or a knife/pocketknife or a slingshot they may as well ban a sharpened pencil.
greasypaws

rayzor51
