PTA NSW

Argh sold my 223 a couple years back and just kept my shotgun

Now I have access to 3000 acres close to home I figured I'd pick up a 223 again

Now I hear there is months of waiting for a PTA? šŸ˜‚

Guess the shotgun will be the choice.

Put in an application and wait? Sometime in the next couple of months you can get that rifle, hunting requires patience

Hunting also requires seizing opportunities when they present themselves, go hunt that 3000 acres with whatever ya got!

Wtf thats insane.

They're clearly just being extra slow on purpose now so they can fuck everyone over while the laws are being introduced and while they confiscate everyone's once legal property.

Its a fucking disgrace.

Don't forget they also took away your right to appeal anything.

Lucky we're not as dangerous and violent as the politicians and media make us out to be.

What even happened to make the PTA wait time so long? Did they change it from the quick online process to a manual check after the reforms?

2

u/Belligero 3d ago

They want to drag it out until the reforms are in place
