kos,

the SSAA did everything they could to prevent the buyback in '96. At that time the late Ted Drane was speaking up for every shooter to the media on a daily basis. There were well over 100,000 people, just in Melbourne protesting against those draconian laws.

I do agree wiht you on the handgun buyback, the SSAA has done NOTHING. It really pisses me off because i'm a member of the SSAA and I beleive we need a much stronger organization to voice the concerns of all shooters.
