  1. Just some info as to how many $$ you can spend in Australia in relation to a license & 'Permits to Acquire [PTA ] Now this relates to my home state of Queensland [ Qld ]..other States are different but most are around the same price ..'EXCEPT Western Australia [WA ] which has absolutely the worst gun laws in Australia & way more expensive to own guns. I'm just renewing my longarm & pistol license, cost for both is $320 for 5 years. A PTA is currently $45 per gun no matter rifle/shotgun or pistol, then when you broker the buy thru a gun dealer it is around $20, can be cheaper if you have a dealer friend or someone in the club,dealers can be a shop or individual. Dealers, antique collectors all pay an annual fee..not sue of cost [ someone will chime in ] To own a pistol you'MUST be a member of a club & depending on how many calibers you own attend a minimum of shoots. You have a card that is signed with the particulars of each time you shoot. Rifle /shotgun do not have minimum shoot requirements, there can be a club m'ship but most just have property owners permission to shoot on their land. Not sure about other states but in Qld we have a like for like swap for rifle or shotgun [not pistol ] , if you want to get another SXS for example you can exchange the one you have for the one you want..basically same for same with minor differences allowed. This is only thru a shop. Everything I have said does not relate to pump or auto's ..they are a different kettle of fish !!......Cheers 'Mohawk
  2. Good explanation by Major Crimes, he has pretty well covered it....I was up to 50 guns myself but have shortened it down to 35, pump & auto shotguns have been part of that , if you have the genuine reason then in most cases you can have them , handguns are a lot of paperwork & time but again if you jump thru the hoops they are obtainable..it's all a paper trail & money.....don't worry governments are always changing the goal posts !!!
  3. Down -under it's anything you can dang well find !!
  4. Too young ..great actor & Doc Holiday ..well that was just superb... RIP..
