Adelaide Gun Shop are good but don't seem to carry much stock, especially powder.

SARA are quite good but it can be quite a hassle that they are not open on Monday or Saturday.

However, they are all very expensive compared with eastern states gun shops. Unjustifiably expensive in my opinion.


Expensive? Interesting to know. Maybe Ill just keep buying my Ammo from interstate then.

Just had a look at the 9mm Syntech by AE and AGS have them listed on their website for $35.95 for a 50pk which is $10.95 more than what I pay in NSW.

Buy it interstate, add on a cut for yourself, then sell it to everyone over here, you would still be cheaper than the gun shops. Guns are even worse than ammo.

You poor fella.


Why you say that, oh he who live'th nowhere. ..?



Just having a stir mate. For what it’s worth I actually think Adelaide is quite nice, with the exception of your weather. I am there for work on occasion.
I live in regional North QLD mate so quite the contrast.

Mate it doesn’t take to much for it to change down there either.
Those big old fast moving cold fronts that stooge in from the sea change everything in a heartbeat.
Mind you, there is some fairly influential geography that changes things, ie, big ice continent to the south and the big hot sandy desert to the north, Adelaide in the middle. Apart from the weather, it’s a fairly tidy city so far as cities go.
In saying that I don’t think I’d survive in the city.

In the last few years I've found Fisher Firearms to be the most helpful and friendliest.

Now, I just buy from whoever has what I want at a reasonable price and distance from me which is usually metro Adelaide. I also purchase from out club to help support them.
