G'Day Fella's,

Ripp thank you for that but this report was not totally correct (but probably will be some time soon), in that;

Any Handgun of a calibre Larger than .38 cal (Western Action/(SASS), are excluded from this)
or
With a magazine capacity of More than 10
or
A barrel Shorter than 100mm (Revolver) or 120mm (Pistol) that was registered, had to be handed in and was subsequently destroyed.

So we still have access to .22, 9mm's and .38/.357 revolvers and pistols (and because of my authorisations, I can still have and use most things).

Also, Pump Action Rimfire and Centrefire Rifles, are at present still legal.

As you already know, the Criminals didn't hand any of their Unlicensed and Illegal firearms in, so these are still out on the street!
Also, we are told, that our borders protection authorities are so under maned and that our borders are so porous, that what now qualifies as Prohibited Guns (not to mention, Tons of Illicit Drugs and thousands of Refugees), are constantly supplying and or resupplying the criminals, with whatever they require!

Mate, I hope that helps clear a few things up for you.
Also and FYI, have a look at www.usedguns.com.au (kinda like "Gun Broker"),for an insight into what is on the Legal Market, here in Oz.

HooRoo for now
Homer
