A New Attack

[Gaznazdiak]

New South Wales is going into competition with the Western Police State it seems.

NSW police cleared a dealer to sell Gel Ball guns and supplies, then raided him and charged him with weapons offenses for possession and sale of the items they had previously approved.

Yep its a good thing qld had "capable of firing a LETHAL projectile" in our definition of a firearm in the Act otherwise there's a good chance they'd be illegal up here too!!
Its not often we have a win but all the best to you Mexicans hopefully common sense will prevail and they'll be classed as the toys they are!!!

At the risk of straying into foil hat territory DB, I see this as part of a clandestine program to gradually erode shooter's "rights" here.

Ever since 1996 the restrictions on us have been slowly getting tighter while the lace panty brigade's strident bleating would have the uninformed, non shooting public believe they are being gradually eroded, aided by arrant bloody nonsense like last week's 4 Corners.

What's next, banning video games with any form of gun play?

With the majority of Australians being avocado smashing slickers, we are a persecuted minority now, and it seems we are the only ones who know it.

Well actually just had a thought. All the video games trotting ppl are a huge potential market for firearms... ssaa lets go there

I actually saw a tv ad for SSAA a couple of days ago, so there is a little push back going on

[Sergeant Hartman]

Ahh they mentioned it in their magazine

Except the SSAA were a huge supporter of banning and/or "R" classifying shoot'em up video games a few years back.

It was tongue in cheek, I doubt they/ssaa could handle young kids

Gaz I don't think its tinfoil hat territory at all I think it's a definite goal of govt (thats all major sides of the house) to have zero private ownership and when we've got some "shooters" spouting the same bullsh@t as the poliscum and antis its a distinct possibility that we'll see it come about in our lifetime.
Maybe the missus should have bought me a roll of foil instead of a new hat!!!

[Sergeant Hartman]

It might happen but not everlasting will give up their guns... plus you could always get some sane leave where crimes get em

Only by ousting the big parties will we be in a position of probably putting common sense gun laws back into play
Until then tin foil hat and trudge on and keep the pressure on the anti's
