People kill people and it is people that should be restricted not the tools. People who commit violent crimes should be removed from society permanently and not released for good behaviour only to go commit even more serious crimes.

Guns are not the problem, our law system is the problem.

I have watched my rights been eroded by the actions of a few. If I had made any errors with my firearms I would never be able to hold a license again, have my fire arms taken & possibly do time in jail. Compare that with the death & trauma caused by vehicle drivers & the fact that they can get behind the wheel drunk or incompetent & do damage again to the community. Time for a fair go for the honest.

Restirction placed on hangun caliber to .38 or below is an example of out of control legislation that makes no difference to criminals only law abiding firearms owners and one that needs to change. Magazine capacity needs to be looked at. Handgun hunting is also a valid sporting activity and the ability to have a handgun as a back up firearm whilst hunting would be an advantage in situations where either the rifle is empty or malfunction occurs. Situations where an animal needs to be dispatched humanely after a fallen shot or the shot has failed to kill the animal or a charging animal such as a wild dog or pig gets too close a handgun would provide an easier and safe option to dispatch or scare off an attacking animal. It would also add to the need for the lift of handgun caliber restrictions.

I like Australia's gun laws. I think they're fair and they're a good balance between safety of public and allowing sportsmen, farmers, collectors to do their thing.

So demonizing Australia's sporting shooters seems hypocritical.

over there licensed shooters are less restricted once proved to be law abiding citizens who meet the criteria to be firearms owners. instead of arbitrarily restricting things based on cosmetics and ergonomics. 'military looking' and the likes.
these are tools and equipment used by farmers, hunters and sports people. they shouldn't be restricted because they look like something else.
