Collector's License

[sebii]

Hi all,

Does anyone know if the SSAA is an approved historical society for the purposes of getting a collector's license in QLD? It seems the historical arms guild here is no more. I know the SSAA have a historical branch, but is that a separate membership to SSAA? I'm having trouble finding a society, club, or association.

Cheers,
Seb

I'm no expert mate but on the SSAA forms you can opt to have them be your genuine reason for Hunting, Target Shooting or Collecting so I would think that you could have your standard membership with them act as a a genuine reason for a collecter's licence.

Might be best to contact either SSAA or your Licensing branch got clarification.

Straight from the horses mouth.

Annoyingly all the SSAA websites are different, not necessarily making it easy to check differences between states.

I found on the SSAA NSW website this...

Please note SSAA NSW can only support A/B Category Licence for Target Shooting & Hunting and a Category G Collector Licence.

Shows SSAA will support collectors license where possible, but QLD website doesn't specify either way.

Call 'em.
