4 GUNS ARE NOT ENOUGH: Here’s why the NSW limits won’t work

from Gun News Australia: the latest news for Aussie shooters · host Politics Reloaded - real news for Aussie shooters

WE TALK ABOUT how the new gun limits in New South Wales' recently passed firearms legislation will severely limit what hunters and target shooters can do. The new laws will limit hunters to just 4 firearms and target shooters to 10.  We explain why these limits are inadequate for legitimate shooters. SEAN FRAZER walks us through his own hunting journey, that shows how easily you can exceed 4 firearms when going after rabbits, ducks, foxes, deer, and pigs. That’s because these require different calibres and configurations. That’s before you get to the needs of target shooters and farmers. Plus, we look at how family involvement can quickly chew up that number - because licensed children must have their firearms registered under their parents' licenses. FOR TARGET SHOOTERS, the situation is even more restrictive. We discuss how competitive shooters across multiple disciplines—including bench rest, metallic silhouette, and handgun competitions—need way more than 10 firearms to compete properly. WE ALSO COVER the three active fundraisers supporting legal challenges against these laws, which have raised over $300,000 combined - but need significantly more is needed to fund proper legal challenges.   You can check them out here: Click here to see the fundraiser by Terra Australis Lawyers:   Click here to see the fundraiser by NSW Firearms Dealers Association:  Click here to see the fundraiser by McDonald Law:   INDIVIDUALS who prefer to donate outside of GoFundMe can email us at editor@ politicsreloaded.com - and we’ll pass your enquiry on. -------------------------------------------------------------- GET EARLY RELEASES!
