THE NSW Greens hope to reduce gun numbers in the state with new legislation it is putting before parliament.
"It is simply wrong that individuals can accumulate an unlimited number of deadly weapons with next to no scrutiny," says Greens MP and firearms spokesman David Shoebridge.
Under the legislation, registered holders would be limited to a maximum of three guns.

I’m counting it as one.
It's a good start though.
No, that's not correct, we will still have the right, which is God-given.
Five of nine SCOTUS judges can rule that the sky is green or slavery should be legal, but that won't make them right.
IOW, Molon Labe, black robes!
If they were counting barrels as guns, it would be a lot more!

First know that this is incrementalism, if they can tell you to only have three guns then they can tell you to have no guns since you obeyed the first request.

I would tell them to drop dead.
I have maybe 15 guns and consider myself nearly unarmed.
It’s a good start though
You’re not a gun nut until you can’t remember how many you have!
He obviously does not research topics before making silly comments, and based on his post #11, he lacks planning and critical thinking skills.
The fact that we were born into a Constitutional Republic guarantees our freedoms, or should I say it used to.
Unfortunately, we also have Citizens who believe that the Government replaces God, so they support Politicians who share their delusion. Laws are now created that turn a Law Abiding Citizen into a criminal overnight. No action is required by the Citizen to make this happen, only action by the Government. Where we had Courts that protected our Freedom, we now have Courts that dictate how much Freedom we are “allowed” to enjoy. (please refer to my taglline for clarification)
Thus we are left with the saying, “from my cold dead hands”.
If I could count my airguns the number would more than double.
At one time I owned over 200 and many of them were high end models. I went through a period of very little income and was forced to sell nearly all of them.
I ended up keeping ones that I knew were very fine guns yet were not worth much. For instance I kept two Argentine Hi-Powers because I had owned many of them including several Belgian and Canadian made ones and the Argies were every bit as good as far as accuracy and reliability.
I am slowly rebuilding my collection but will never have the likes of what I once did.
Amazing! Exactly what I was thinking. Make the 12 ga a Saiga and the .45 capable of taking accessories.
That’s a damn shame you had to downsize your collection. I’m sitting at a core of around 27, and it would be tough to part with any of those. The others could go away without any serious care.
Three for me, three for the wife, three for the mother-in-law, three for each of our six kids.
Memo to self: Need more kids.
Your boy INVENTED a statement I didn’t make.
I wonder if they would also deem it to be "simply wrong" and Parliament was restricted from passing more than a maximum of three bills per year?
Heck, that would be a pretty good idea for Congress here.

You may add this to your well stated comment...
In Australia, have the, the criminal justice system,
Change the laws to the extent that , and I quote...
You are changed with “xyz”, how do you plead....
Not guilty?
The BURDEN OF YOUR PROOF INNOCENCE IS YOURS
PROVE TO THE COURT YOUR NOT GUILTY AS CHANGED.
seems like about only a few, ummmm... communist/dictator/religiously extreme countries have that law..... in Australia you are guilty as changed unless YOU prove your innocent..... seldom happens btw.
Sorry for the caps people, but, I left My country that i loved and still love to escape to the USA 14 years ago.
I have a clean record, in two countries, I left because I wanted Freedom, not socialist repression.
Oh, hands up how many of you knew that until it became public, read that as “the unions had finally gained full control of all Local State and Federal infrastructure”, that ALL middle and above level members of the LABOR Party of Australia, were card carrying members of the Australian Communist Party.
They outed themselves, why, because they no longer needed to hide, they controlled everything....and still do.
When someone talks to Me about Australia, then tells Me that it is raining, I reach for a knife and cut off the c**k that is p*****g on my leg.
I have lived through one “gun grab”, I defend those here in the USA that defend the rights of Self preservation self defense.

Losing a lot of them didn’t bother me too much but there were quite a few I don’t even like to think about they were so fine. I had several N frame Smiths that were near perfection.
A model 27 with an 8 and 3/8 inch barrel which I used in my gun club’s all comers matches. I remember going five for five several times at the 100 yard pigs or rams or whatever it was at that distance. I also lost a couple of times when I hit them but didn’t knock them over.
Also some model 25s, 29s, 57s and a few model 17s. I hated to see my Ruger super blackhawks in .44mag go. Same for four different AR-15 H=bars. All came with a .22Lr conversion kit. A bunch of HK models, 91,93 SL6, 7 etc.
Two Ruger Red Label, and Beretta overunders which were always easy to hit with. A bunch of Hi-Standard Supermatics, Victors etc.
Several BRNO .22LR rifles. A whole lot more. Too many to remember actually.
You don't take it out for an afternoon at the range you take it out for a minute.
“That’s what Excel spreadsheets are for.”
I lost my computer in a tragic boating accident!
I’m about 25 times over the limit.
