    Well mate,as another thread has pointed out,....deliberately worded and designed for confusion.!!!!

    Basically,these jackarses have rushed this legislation through so quickly without doing their homework,and now have created a situation they are having a hard time justifying

    ANY rifle or shotgun is able to be modified to accept an external magazine -- give me a grinder, some flat steel and a stick welder. A very wide ranging description, which is why it is used, it is designed to ban everything.

    I couldn't find the part to tick that said that. It always came up as saying that I didn't not want to make an oral submission

    Its not necessary anyway.
    The Police don't seem to know my address even after I've told them I've moved and they've come and checked my safe.

    although i think stug is a dick, he is correct......it "could" accept a larger mag so its E-cat. (i gave up a woodsman auto because it could take a larger mag and was outlawed).

    you are apply logic to an emotional liberal argument.....so either you are right wing and for hate speech or you are for killing people.........that's what the govt thinks.......not like you are going to vote liberal

    @GDMP it could be argued that because it is still called a BAR, that it is in fact a military style rifle. Browning have taken a military designed rifle and turned it into a recreational hunting rifle. Browning Automatic Rifle is what the military called it, yes it has been redesigned. It still carries it's military name. That in itself will be it's down fall. Along with being a semi.
