Actually what are the rules with firearms in Australia? I didn't know that citizens could own them!
The only time I held a gun was during the period when I was serving the army during the 2 years mandatory stint for National Service and only got to fire live ammunition during the live firing examination we had 😅
Most firearms are available to own here, with the appropriate licensing. There are some restrictions of course, but generally it's not too bad...one just needs to have the right license. I have many, many, firearms and have had for years.
So anyone could apply for an license as long as they fulfil certain requirements?
Also, I assumed that there should only be certain places (safezones) where you're allowed to use them right?
Pretty much anyone, but there's requirements as you say.
Hmm, we have ranges but I shoot on private property also. One doesn't go to the mall and start shooting though, you know?
Yeah exactly, that is why I'm curious what are the avenues for you guys to use them 😅
Would love to see all of your collection, must have an amazing stash!
I'll never show all my firearms online, just a few here and there which I've shown over the years, rifles and handguns. I've actually done a lot of firearms related posts.
Yeah I definitely saw quite a number of them so far! 😁
What an interesting hobby! Pretty rare in Singapore's context that's for sure.
It's rare in most countries actually, but fortunately here I'm able to have the firearms I want. I applied for an M1 Abrams tank a little while ago, always
wantedneeded one...my application is still under review.
