Yes. Contrary to popular belief in the US, law abiding Australians can legally own a wide variety of firearms. A lot of nonsense was published in the US in the late 1990s about supposed 'gun bans' and 'confiscations' in Australia. Gun laws were 'reformed' at that time, and more restrictions were introduced than had existed before, but provided you don't have a criminal record, it's easy to get a licence for basic firearms, and quite possible to obtain licences for more powerful firearms if you are willing to navigate the red tape. One of the easiest ways to do this is to 'show a reason' for owning such a weapon - such as pig shooting or camel culling.
