Re: Americans hunting in Aust - Question?

In reply to:
The Customs Form 4457 is required to lawfully take your firearms in and out of the U.S.
...
The CF4457 use is just as rgp describes. It intended to identify non US goods you already possessed in the U.S.
The Gun control act of 1968 added the requirement for using the CF4457 as proof you had the firearm in the U.S. before you left.
Yes this is the form I was thinking of. If you do not have a US Firearms Licence because your state does not issue one, then my question was
Does the Australian state authorities accept a CF4457 as proof you are "licenced" or legally able to use firearms in the US? ie for issuing a temporary firearms licence for Australia while hunting here? Or are they simply aware (ha ha) that you do not have firearms licences in the USA?
