Hi From Australia
Hi all,
Stopped by to say g'day and thanks for having me in your forum (like you had much choice). I'm a complete noob shooter, but very interested in all aspects of handguns. I'm going to post in the post 1980's section regarding dating my 586 so hopefully someone can help.
Cheers - TF

You'll find other Aussies already here. I see some in the forum for guns from roughly WWI- the 1960's.
One is a retired NSW cop. He filled us in on the sad fate of many of their replaced/updated guns. Thankfully, some came here. Many were scrapped.

Welcome from Oklahoma. What kind of red tape do you Aussie's have to go through to buy and own a handgun?

G'day mate,
Several years ago I spent two Winter's motorcycling around your great country. Having Alaska plates on the motorcycle was almost a free beer ticket when I was travelling the outback. I think Alaskan's and Aussie's share the same spirit. Welcome aboard.
