The fact is at this point there is no point, and if you logically think about it that unless everyone is willing to inform the police of the firearms you own, then there will be no point. Criminals will always obtain guns, either by thefts or illegal imports, but two wrongs don,t make a right.
As gun owners we need to set the agenda, not try closing the door after the horse has bolted.
If we offered some of the following perhaps we could offset further restrictions
1. Better security, safes as a minimum standard
2. Inform police who you sell a firearm to, the rubbish spoken about data base security is irrelevant, everyone on this site is easily traceable as is anyone who visits a hunting via there number plate.
OK some people may say give them an inch and they will take a mile, but if they really want that mile they will take it anyway, as any Aussie .
