Owen Guns Bulletin Edition 94 August 2014
Welcome to the Ninety Forth Edition of the Owen Guns Bulletin.
Call To Action.
Sorry it is late, busy completing a 68 page submission to the Senate Legal and Constitutional Affairs Committee in Canberra as they are reviewing our very limited rights to own semi auto handguns, (they define semi-auto as one shot to one pull of the trigger that includes all double action revolvers as well) so the submission was an immediate priority. Please see links to .pdf files, if you wish to use all, or some of the information from it by cutting and pasting in your own submissions, or just forward a copy of this one with a note stating that you agree with this submission and email it to them before the submission deadline is 15 August 2014. Please pass this about by email, or facebook so all your friends can also put in a submission. These duties only can only take a few minutes, its better to invest the time now rather than spending time later handing in your property to those who deserve it the least.
Firearm Owners Association of Australia Submission on (for copy of the submission and details where to send your submissions)
“The ability of Australian law enforcement authorities to eliminate gun-related violence”.
Ask your shooting organisation for a copy of their submission, make sure that they are putting one in, if they are not, you may ask them why they keep taking your membership money. Make sure you enter a submission, it is one of your few remaining rights. Please do something, let them know we will not go into the night quietly. ron

If you want more place to shoot, more shooting facilities in Queensland,
and have not yet signed this parliamentary petition please put your name to it. We only have a few weeks to go before its closed. It took time and effort to set this opportunity up, we would like to get over a 1000 signatures so they take us seriously. Last look we were up to 670. Even if not for you personally, do it for other shooters and for those who come after us. http://www.parliament.qld.gov.au/work-of-assembly/petitions/e-petition?PetNum=2279
Essentially there is agreement in principle from the Minister to excise land from Corella Forest and grant a lease to Gympie Regional Council so they can in turn lease it to the Cooloola Range Complex Association. The Association aims to construct a rifle range complex with provision for such disciplines as small bore, silhouette, pistol, sporting clays, trap, military service rifle, air rifle, Western action and running targets. The longest rifle range would be 1000 metres, with 2 kilometres behind for the safety template. This has taken near twenty years of work we need a show of support. This range complex facility will benefit all shooters who reside within South Eastern Queensland.

“It’s a week since I received a copy of “Range Officers Hand Book” and since that time I am nearly at the half way mark. I’m amazed at the at the number of subjects you have covered making it one of the most informative books to be added to my collection. It must have taken you a considerable amount of time and experience to publish the book with information not available in other popular Gunsmith manuals. I would recommend the book to “Range Officers” and anyone interested in the sport of target shooting and hunting.” Regards Gene M Cornford P.O.Box 288, Kaeo 0448 N.Z. Firearms Gunsmith, Dip M.G.S +Member of American Gunsmithing Assoc. The Range Officers Handbook is an encyclopaedia or omnibus of firearms and ammunition and the use of them, it has:- • 90 pages of Information for Range Officers, • 239 pages on Coaching to Win, • 110 pages on Air Rifle History &Training, • 33 pages on hitting Clay Targets, • 34 pages on Reloading Ammunition, • 6 page of Contents, • 18 pages of Index, • 38 pages of Old into New, ( Chronological History of Firearms) • 23 pages of Glossary of Terminology on Firearms and Optics • Over 1000 drawings and photographs. • Over 530 pages in a A4 stitched colour hardback., Some, hopefully will read it cover to cover, others will pick a heading out of the Contents pages and read a chapter or two, but no matter how much you know about shooting, reference material is always needed, as even people who rate as genius cannot retain everything. The real ability is being able to find out quickly and easily. You can check that you have the correct terminology, in the Glossary, check the Index and go straight to the right page. This book can be used as an information tool for a lifetime of shooting. $75 Signed by the author (state who you would like it dedicated to) plus $10 postage Australia wide.
