It's all come out,(just like the SFP said months ago) Vic police as well as the minister have publicly stated that they are going to go for all levers. If so I doubt they will leave pumps alone. I'd say single shot .22's in the next decade or so is all we will have left. They have been very clever with this coordinated media campaign.

This has nothing to do with the adler they have been planning this for years. Vic police have let the cat out of the back the lever buy back was coming regardless. There theft of private property will be celebrated by the media and unfortunately will be popular with the public who don't know better.

1.212 It is reasonable to conclude that the banning of certain categories of firearm only affects those who possess and use them lawfully. Those who use them unlawfully are already outside the law.

1.225 The majority of Senators attending the inquiry recommend State and territory governments investigate avenues to deregulate the firearm industry to ease the economic burden on governments, industry and legal firearm users.”
Everyone really knew all that, but now a Commonwealth Senate Committee has published it. Now is the time to stop wasting resources with impositions on the lawful community and instead transfer police resources into policing the criminal elements within our society.
