First time on here. New to Australia.
Because there are some new types of .223 rifle coming out that are apparently legal in WA, Taipan Light etc. I would like to upgrade from the bolt action I'll be getting once my licence is approved.
How would I go about this? Can I sell my rifle and apply for a new .223? Would I have to justify why I want a different rifle or just justify the calibre and type? And how likely is it that this will be approved?
Also, anyone have an idea about original licence processing time for Cat A and B? 28 days ended mid-January.
