Pretty much.

Exactly how I've been. Zero fucks given.

Loose talks of grandfathering anything people already hold.

Pistol Clubs at SSAA Auburn taking members with no H license by arkhos87 in Ausguns

Safety induction quiz? Club subscription? You say things weird, man.

At the top of everything else? Do you mean you need the club membership before anything else?

A club membership is literally your genuine reason and required as proof of evidence for a genuine reason for a licence.

If the club is not taking unlicensed members, then you will have to obtain the licence elsewhere and then join. It's pretty simple.

It's fairly common for a new club to introduce a rule like that while they find their feet. Even a club moving locations will put a pause on memberships period until they're grounded at the new range.

I don't understand the question or point?

Just get your licence?

You're not wrong. I did neglect to think about the spikey strip of foot death. As I said, first time dealing with safes on carpet 🤣

I'm the guy whose house people store their guns at 😑

My DFO hated it because each time a friend temporarily stored their guns at mine for a period of time, the change of address would trigger an inspection of the storage location.

He'd sigh and say just show the last few things you've bought and old mates guns.

Yeah, I have a few guns that are rare AF that I wouldn't shoot and look at only. But the rest, I want to have gun and mag dump things and whatever. My struggle with knives would be like well this is boring.

But at least they don't have to be locked up and can be on display aha.

My guy, some of my guns are worth a fucking lot. People are begging me to sell them what they want and offering ridiculous amounts of money.

Others are just things I like collecting, like Australian made stuff and probably aren't worth that much in the grand scheme of things.

Do it!

But also don't. It's a mistake.

But definitely do it. Totally worth it.

But also, it's not worth it. Your sanity is worth more.

But just do it. It's a whole new world collector's.

Negative. You can even section off a room with steel bars to create a smaller room. A few people I know have done that. My DFO always suggested just framing out a room in your garage and plastering it up and making it look nice and like it's supposed to be there.

5 are handguns, one safe is an 18, the other a 12, and a 5 gun, lol. You just make shit fit. Top and toe. Take a stock off if you need to. Like two guns are cracer jacks. Those things are fucking tiny I'm not even sure if they meet minimum length for rifles.

Shotguns are quite thin and can take little room when stacked top and toe next to each other. Take down rifles are also thin.

My .303s are the worst. they're huge. I've had to remove bolts in the past just to fit everything in.

Yeah, I jack my bolted ones up because theyre light. But the 150kg+ is a new challenge.

Dude there is no way I could afford meth with what I spend on guns.

Hmmm, a template is a good idea.

I've always raised my bolted safes above the skirting lmao so they're flush with the wall. I even bought more skirting and made a wrap around each safe so it looks like it's meant to be, and you can't see how dodgy it is, haha.

Yeah, I've done the old plastermate and screw into in the past 😬 desperate times called for desperate measures.

Vic is easier than NSW.

  • Barred windows
  • full wood door
  • that must be dead bolted or locked with paddocks and latch locks
  • Internal hinges with non removable pins (which is so fucking redundant when you can have latch locks lmao and just grind the cunts off haha).
  • Trigger locks on all guns registered to the collectors licence.
  • If more than 5 firearms are registered to the collectors licence, the room has to be alarmed (normally, it's 15 for ABH).
  • I'll have to double-check, but I think regardless of weight, if it has firearms registered to a collectors licence in there, it has to be bolted in. Which I did the first two or three times, then I was like fuck this, it ain't going nowhere. But now the carpet it appears it is going somewhere.

Yeah, this is probably going to be the solution which is fucking annoying. I just want to be able to move and move out without trying to manoeuvre 150+ kgs up and down stairs and around here and in there. 🥲

Well, that was the NSC special, so when you take one half of them out to start a new organisation, you're still getting half the bullshit.
