Now, before you get your tightly whities wedged in your crack, I've got a bunch of Aussie friends and they're awesome and come to think of it I've never met an Aussie I didn't like.
 
Some guns are junk. I've owned a few that deserved the scrap heap. Many of the guns I could make out in that video (I didn't watch all of it) were rubbish wearing a trigger. Good riddance.
 
That sucks.

I haven’t watched it in full . Just finished nightshift.

Yes probably from the 96 buyback where we lost semi autos and pump action shotguns to the general population.

Most of those guns would have been crushed in a press to disable them before being transferred to a smelter .

They didn't just confiscate junk or "Saturday night specials" I remember seeing picture of engraved, heirloom grade pistols, etc. They didn't care. There should be hell to pay if they try that again. Or, try it here for that matter.
 
yeah 1996 “forced buy back”

I have a pic somewhere of me from 2019 sitting in Bojanles Saloon in Alice Springs NT, holding a copy of Australian Outdoors from 1973 showing a full page advert for the Ruger 10/22 Carbine.

I suddenly had an awakening to the fact that I was sitting in a developed modern nation of friendly people, reading a magazine printed 10years before I was born which was advertising a firearm that I owned multiple versions of and admired ….. and they were all rounded up and crushed 23 years before.

never take anything for granted.

Nugget here. A guide gave me the nickname as I looked similar to Nugent at the time. Hunting for over 50 years yet I am new to hunting in another country and its inherent game species. I plan to do archery. I have not yet ruled out the long iron as a tag-along for a stalk. I am still deciding on a short list of game. Not a marksman but better than average with powder and string.
