I think it was sifa in general petitioning for change.
NSW has an odd law regarding length of pull.
Cannot be manipulated or adjusted in any way.
I believe NSW is the only place worldwide that does this.
And obviously manufacturers don't always adhere to that.
There is no official explanation.
But rumour has it this dates back to the white Australia policy.
Italian and Greek immigrants post ww11 had relatively longer torsos and shorter limbs. As they still do today. People of Mediterranean descent require a shorter length of pull
The pen is mightier than the sword. If the pen is used to order more swords.
