Don't suppose there is any point in an out-of-state shooter sending one...

Would be happy to put my name to something if it would help.

As I've just learned, your guys fees are out of control.

AusC Ive been seeing alot of petitions with either international or out of states Signatures on them . More the merrier i'd say mate.

And a personal thanks to everyone that fires one or two off. I sent one to my local minister and one off to Rick Mazza, so he can front up with some legitimate numbers to use :)

Righto.

I'll send one, for what it's worth. Get to it when I can.

That $170 is some serious B S.

The $170 is straight up bulls**t.

How can they say that's anything but an attempt to try and price people out of shooting.

I'd love to hear their justification on how there is $170 worth of time/labour involved in putting 1 form through.

Mate, you're a year too late. Did you notice the date.

Rick previously moved a disallowance motion on the increased fees regs and subsequent submissions have all been considered and reviewed at a Parliamentary Committee enquiry held in Oct.2013.

But wait for it,

The Nationals did not support the motion for disallowance so the fees remain and are law !!!!!!.
