Firearms should be categorized based on their function not how close they look to something that somebody saw in a movie.
Appearance is also unimportant as firearms are only seen by other firearm users at the range or when hunting, if a member of the public sees a firearm then there are likely other laws being broken (such as in the middle of a bank robbery or other criminal use of illegal guns)
Unfortunately, laws that favor law abiding firearm owners just don't happen anymore as they aren't in line with the ongoing political (mostly left) agendas across the world to remove access to firearms for every citizen.

If I could I'd simply do this
Make semiautomatic rimfires all cat A
Remove the BS appearance laws altogether.
Make pump shotguns cat B
AAAAAAAnd I'd say make semiautomatic centerfire rifles with non detachable magazines up to 10 round capacity cat B.
Allow suppressors for all bolt actions, with permits for semiautomatic rimfire and professional cullers for cat C&D
Have stern talk to that complete moron Kochie and his mates telling them to keep their propaganda BS and misinformation to themselves.

You don't want centrefire s/a de-restricted because you are incapable of understanding why many shooters have a valid competition reason for them, as many hunters also do, Yet you want to propose we all support your own narrow views on what is an acceptable firearm in your eyes. You sound very much like Russel Mark who also proposes the same as you with the same narrow focus, and publicly supported John Howard in achieving that. When you understand that other folk have genuine reasons for centrefire s/a rifles, whether you like it or not, and you are prepared to stand for ALL shooters, then you might find more of us willing to fight for your ideas, Cheers.

I will never support nothing less than full automatic of any calibre in the hands of law abiding citizens as well as concealed carry and castle law in ones home. An armed society is a polite society and gun crime only happens in gun free zones. QLD will have Alaskan style gun laws before I die of old age.

I would actually be more concerned by the introduction of Castle laws and concealed carry and such. That's not Australia were a pretty laid back place, and id rather it stay that way. I don't feel threatened on our streets, except maybe by the sun some days.
Do you see a reason why you want this style of law here?

The saying goes divided we fall united we stand. The more one side keeps abusing anyone that doesn't support 100% full access to full auto firearms and calling them fudd... the more they put off moderate licensed firearm owners and less chance they will have of getting their (outlandish) goals.
In short AC your dream will remain a dream cuz you can't even convince actual shooters the need to get full auto firearms. And abusing them defiantly won't help you

The sport is so expensive as it is and I like that two boxes of 223 and a box of buck shot will last me around two hours but bring in semi auto and those 40 rounds of 223 are gone in five minutes.
