So the good folk at the ADA just emailed out some links regarding the reshaping of the Firearms Regs for NSW for 2017 (which needs to be done because otherwise they'll expire). Links below are to the draft regulations and the commentary that the government provides for the consultation period.

Two proposed changes I found very interesting
1/ Specifying transport regulations with respect to non-commercial transport of cat A and B. Summary version, if passed as is, you will either need to fit a trigger lock, or remove the bolt, or have it locked in a case inside/affixed to the vehicile
2/ Which is a big one for me - you can't store firearms at a residence if it isn't someone's primary residence, or someone isn't residing there at the time of storage. Doesn't have to be your primary residence, but it has to be someone's residence, it can't be mostly unoccupied. Meaning, no more leaving the rifle at the hobby farm if no one actually lives there.
