NW VIC - New gunshop open in Bendigo

Post by AusC » 19 Nov 2014, 10:52 am

For any shooters out that way, a new LGS has opened up.

Smith's Outdoors, website here: http://www.smithsoutdoors.com.au/

Had a mate pass through and gave them the thumbs up the other day. I'm out that way sometimes too.

Maybe save yourself some driving to Melbourne ;)

Typo... I'm in NE and typed it out of habit.

Meant to say NW.

I did say Bendigo at least :D

Far from my neck of the woods but any new stores opening is a plus for the scene IMO :)

…and if you're in the N/E and are short of something drop into Blueys Bait&Tackle, Wodonga or Elks Hunting&Fishing, Albury. (big store)

I tend to stick to Elks Hunting & Fishing, Albury. Sure it's over the border (just), but they have a big range of stock, ammunition and what ever else you need. No problems if you hold a Vic Firearms Licence but they can't do an online PTA to VicPol being a NSW dealer. The have to do the paper trail. Doesn't worry me, you still get the PTA in a week. They all hunt, particularly deer and the porkers but also have a large range of shotguns for the duck lovers..

A week wait isn't the end of the world so that's no problem.
