So he is actually right.
And while we’ve got a government down here willing to actually listen to shooting groups we need to be pushing back against the anti’s. They say “you want to use suppressors so you can shoot in built up areas!” We say “no, we already legally shoot NEAR these built up areas, we just want to use suppressors so we don’t keep hard working Mum’s and Dad’s awake with all the noise”.
No matter what we do, the anti-gunners want our guns.
So we need to be honest about what shooters do, and why we need regulations changed.
Right now in Tassie, both political parties support shooters, with greens support at a historic low.
Strike while the irons hot.
Just like Howard did.
