Thinking about getting my pistol licence, I was talking to the grandfather last time I was up at his place about how stupid our gun laws are. Anyway he used to have all kinds of guns when he lived in the northern territory for shooting crocs and such and suggested I join up with a gun club and get a licence and learn how to do it.

I checked it out and this is what you have to do

Join a club.
Get a probation licence for 12 months.
Police background check and fingerprints.
but you cant buy a gun for 6 months.
when you can buy a gun you have to install a special safe and have the police check it at you house.
you need to apply for a permit to buy any gun (in addition to your licence).
You also need to now apply for a permit to buy ammunition. (in addition to the other licences/permits)

after 12 months you get a H class licence (pistols).
The best gun you can buy with this licence is a Glock 34 (longer barrel). any glock with a smaller barrel length is prohibited. i.e 19 is prohibited except for police and security
You have to go and compete in competitions, minimum monthly. can be more dependng on how many guns you have.

the gun must stay in the safe.
you must travel with the gun not loaded and the ammunition stored in your boot.
the police can search your house to check the guns at any time without a warrant.


I am keen to learn, I have only ever shot rifles on farms, but never any decent weapons or handguns. Do you guys think it is worth going through all that?

Worth going thru all that?

Reading that I think it's worth moving to the US

That's crazy!

I'd only do that if you have extra cash, spare time, and are passionate about shooting. Otherwise, it's a waste and invasion of privacy in your life.

Or move to NZ. It's pretty easy to get a rifle there last I heard.

That is so sad. Diane Fienswine's perfect world.

You'd think that in a country where EVERY animal can and will kill you, you'd be allowed to carry a gun without all that drama. I'm so glad I live in Georgia. We basically don't have gun laws anymore.

Yeah sounds fucking retarded right? but after decades of anti gun propaganda, most people have been brainwashed and agree with these stupid rules.

The whole idea is to stop "gun crime" but they forgot the part where criminals don't actually follow laws only law abiding citizens do that, so guess who gets punished by these ridiculous rules. The scary part is now that criminals are shooting each other more often we have a "gun crisis" and the answer to that, oh right make the laws even more ridiculous...

Anyway I could rant about this for hours, but just have to move on and know that one day people will come to their senses.

that is really sad and for me its kinda complicated and husstle

I'm surprised they don't make you go through all that shit when you buy knives. Those things be cheap and dangerous! And they're even easier to hide and use. Anybody could have one and you'd barely know! QUICK! SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE TO KEEP US SAFE FROM LAW-ABIDING CITIZENS!
