[Gad]

G`day Kurt,does the firearm liscence require an RE1 (recreational shooting/hunting) endorsement for anyone taking up your kind offer

hmmmmmm is that the side of the liscence you choose for example a sporting shooter at a club or for rec and hunting.... if so then yes it is ok, cause the only way to hold a gun lic is to be a member of a sporting shooters or have the other side of it sorted out,

i am not 100% sure but i will look into it

just to be sure, recheck...

I hold a Qld firearms liscence with endorsements of SC1 & RE1… subject to the following conditions, under the Weapons Act 1990 Liscence conditions

these are

SC1 This liscence authorizes the liscencee to have possession of and use registered Category A&B weapons for the purpose of sports or target shooting at an approved range

RE1

This license authorises the liscencee to have possession of and use registered Category A&B weapons for the purpose of recreational shooting on rural land,only with the express consent of the owner…..

These conditions are printed on the letter that comes with the attached firearm liscence,along with the letter that lists your firearms registrations.

PS.. I have never made an application for permission to shoot in National/State parks/forests,not into the Ivan Milat style :dry:

[BassTracker]

Ivan mallet sporting shooters club, giving hitchhikers a sporting chance since the 80's

[Keen-as-fisho]

Spewin but due to my forgetful memory I had to pull out

[keen_as]

Just for my own future reference (if a spot like this pops up again.) Do they allow bow hunters on this property?

[BassTracker]

Im not sure about these guys as they require an ssaa membership to step on the property but I'll look into it for you I couldnt really a big issue

[BassTracker]

Ray

Thanks Ray, Looking forward to meeting him and getting into some goats!

[keen_as]

I have insurance as I'm a member of the ABA (Australian Bow hunters Association) , similar to the SSAA,

although I just found out recently the SSAA does cover bow hunters too.

All part of the challenge.... I drop goats from 100m away no worries. Pigs are a bit harder I will admit.
