the thing is o'l mate we did'nt let them do it, they just did it, we had no control over it. down under both the main goverment partys here are tared with the same brush so to speak, but we are fighting it, believe it or not we can still hunt with a bow of any type but not a crossbow...the police minister in all his glory told us in letters back to us that we should start up bow hunting. in all his madness o'l mate he says that thats ok end quote. but not a crossbow

yes mate we are, but funds are the big issue now if we need a lawyer hopefully the sporting shooter in australia which is like your national rifle ass in the states can go in & bat for us.

at this stage no. the cops dont want to no about it its just to much paper work for them, once we get the letter we can get a crossbow without having to go to the cops.

[one shot scott]

Wow.
They really fear the "evil arrow Flinger" so much more than a machine gun. Look at those fine differences!

Not too long ago in Ontario there was a possibility that a crossbow would require a p.a.l to own. Also recent talk of banning semi's. Both came from the lieberals. I hope The best for ya man. This can happen anywhere.
