Several of those are classified as antique firearms and no license to possess here in Queensland anyway. Right now I'm sruggling to find a Colt SAA that qualifies. The age is the easy part. It also has to be in a caliber that is no longer commercially available! Fortunately I know which ones those are :-)
You summarised our plight beautifully earlier in this thread. You left out, tho, that any misunderstandings with the local constabulary even unrelated to your firearms license, and they send in a SWAT team to take the license and the guns and the ammo. You did know that, right?
