I'd seen the 9mm one and it really looks amazing.
Been trying to find out if lever actions have had trouble in AUS but most the results are old lever actions , not lever releases.

No appearance laws in NSW thankfully, otherwise several firearms I currently have in the safe would have grief

At the state level, NSW doesn't but customs (for whatever reason) finds it convenient to ban the import of firearms that resemble a CAT D.
Not sure what you are referring to here exactly, but if you have lodged the appropriate import permits beforehand I don't see what grounds they could hold it at Customs.

This is where it gets interesting...the state FAR is responsible for the import permits (B709) but Border Force enforce federal legislation which is way too open to interpretation. They can seize items at the point of entry even if state laws permit the ownership and use of them, Adler 8 shot is a classic example. Perfectly legal to own but was stopped at the border on order from the chief clown in charge at the time.
I've got a new project on the burner, the NSW FAR have agreed to register the firearm as a Cat B BUT Border Force have referred my request to the GG for adjudication. I've been chasing them now for almost 6 months to get a ruling....
I find it so frustrating trying to play by the rules when the tards running the country keep changing them, LAFO one day, Gun crazed would be terrorist the next.

I ordered from the US via Brownells the folding stock adapter for the MDT Chassis, which is legal here in Victoria but illegal in ACT where Brownells are. I was curious if that might be a problem but it wasn't.
Looking forward to hearing about that project

No great secret on this one....Anzio 20/50 which is essentially a 20mm Vulcan case shortened and necked down to .50cal. The NSW FAR isn't concerned with chambering so the Anzio complies with the 50cal rules and fits the Cat B Centre Fire rifle classification. Border Force take the caliber AND chambering into account which is why my request has been referred to the GG for adjudication. It's been flagged as being in the grey zone between sporting shooter and specialised military use, they're concerned about it's 5km effective range Great rifle for holding up the Kwik-E-Mart, 2 suburbs away
That is one beautiful rifle, that just for comps here or you planning to travel with that I've seen some before on here that have said AUS lacks too many good big rifle comps and the US is the place to go

But I'm happy to be wrong about that. I'd love one of the pistol carbines. I had a Keltec Sub 2000 in Canada, but it would be a cold day in hell before they allowed something like that over here.
