    Austrailan Police Produce Anti-3D Printed Pistol Video

    Addresses the subject very nicely... Cosmoline understands the reality of Australian governance:

    Austrailia gun ban fail

    The basic message would seem to me to be.... "Do not allow what happened to Australia's lawful firearms owners to happen to you":uhoh: I have lived in Australia since 1995 and was present for the Howard-led media frenzy and lynch mob attitude to lawful shooters which ensued. Route666...

    Wheel Gun Internal Locks Poll

    No lock for me.... I greatly dislike the concept of an internal lock on a defensive device. The fewer parts (especially unnecessary parts that can lock the gun without warning) the better. I quit buying S&W after removing the locks from the last two I bought. Why should we be forced to buy...

    Americas Gun laws compared to Australia

    It does seem strange, doesn't it duns... In most U.S. states, we can, within the law, do something that would get us locked up big time in our 'other' nations.:uhoh: This disparity certainly highlights the glaring inequity of Australian and U.K. law as far as one's human right to arms is...

    The CMP thread

    Nothing but praise from me for CMP Went to the Anniston store in December of last year, found three Garands that were "just right". The staff were courteous and helpful, the rifles arrived promptly. (Ship them to avoid paying AL sales tax!) A great outfit...take more money than you...

    Americas Gun laws compared to Australia

    I know HD Fboy, I am too long-winded with my posts! It wasn't my intent to disparage or question what you posted, only to share my observations from having lived in Oz off and on for so long. Sorry if I came across as confrontational.:( If a cop had seen your knife, you would have been at...

    Americas Gun laws compared to Australia

    Glad you had a good visit HD Fboy.... I've moved back and forth between the U.S. N.Z. and Australia since first immigrating to Australia in 1973. Your observations are similar to my own each time I land in one or the other. Please bear with me OP while I comment on HD Fboy's experience...

    Carrying Into Other People's Homes

    I'd carry unless there is a known aversion on the part of the host. All my close friends and family know me as a "gun guy" who carries daily where legal. I don't like the idea of leaving a weapon in an unoccupied vehicle. I guess I'd carry unless it was a known problem for the host. In...

    Bluejeans and deep pockets.

    Another vote for J.C. Penny "Arizona" jeans They comfortably hold a 640 S&W or a Ruger LCR in a Nemesis or Uncle Mikes.

    Reversing Aussie gun restrictions

    The difference between allegation of criminal activity... and observations upon your comments might be obvious....:) No offense taken, either way. Exasperation is not your friend! Don't want the AFP monitoring this site to have a stroke, do we?:D Great autumn weather for the range here...

    Reversing Aussie gun restrictions

    That's the approach that might succeed. To achieve these gains we need more representation and more activism from shooters. How do we do that? Aside from the good advice from bukijin to keep voting shooters party?

    Reversing Aussie gun restrictions

    You can knock off the innuendo Yankee.... It isn't polite, and it isn't "High Road" either. As far as the mo'cycle bros go, they aren't gonna let plod get the good stuff.;)

    Reversing Aussie gun restrictions

    You're still not "getting it" Yankee!:banghead: Dang, almost made it out the door! The aboriginies I witnessed driving peacefully down the road - not even weaving side to side, had the option of riding on the tray back or walking into Alice from Hermansburg. Their chances of death or injury...

    Reversing Aussie gun restrictions

    And an article for talking points on why prohibition is wrong: Don B. Kates is a research fellow at the Independent Institute in Oakland and a criminologist and former professor of criminal and constitutional law. Gotta go out to Majura range before the "Easter weekend rush".:)

    Reversing Aussie gun restrictions

    Onya' jack! That's what it takes! Get involved. Stay involved! Visit, write, and call politicians. Take the time to discuss the issue rationally and calmly with anyone who expresses interest. Friends, family, co-workers. Personal freedom was blindsided by the anti-freedom...

    Reversing Aussie gun restrictions

    You're drifting into traffic law.... Yankee, I lived 13km outside Alice Springs for five years, ending in 2007. I know first hand about the place. Aborigines will drive drunk, without a licence, with one lug nut holding the wheels on and no lights. If by some chance they are stopped, they...

    Reversing Aussie gun restrictions

    Well, we can agree to disagree Yankee, we're on the same side! It may be stupid. If the government makes it a crime, stupid still wins. Look at aboriginal vehicle-related death rates and see the reality of near universal non-compliance. Same with guns. If a murderer wants one, they can get...

    Reversing Aussie gun restrictions

    Point taken, Radagast.... But those Romans.....:D I don't think so Yankee. Your claim that semi-auto weapons are unavailable to anyone in Australia is false. I used the bikkie example because its current. A Kalashnikov was recovered recently during a raid in NSW. Helps to prove my point -...

    Reversing Aussie gun restrictions

    You're still wrong, Yankee.... "Anybody" covers a lot of territory. An autoloading pistol is as close as the nearest cop. Even a steel bollard would suffice.:) And the Australian office building/school shootings happened when? Before johnnie's laws? No? So how do you figure...

    natural marksman, get involved and informed...and welcome! Find out as much as you can about the history of Australian firearms legislation (makes interesting reading) and why there is an anti-gun bias (and there certainly is) amongst the media and political establishment. Then find out how...
