FROM QUEENSLAND TO WA, we look at the news we're hearing about what each state & territory might be up to with their meddling with our firearm laws.
There's little doubt that while our governments say we have a National Firearms Agreement, that they are in fact doing their own things, which will take them further away from any idea of uniformity.
In fact we call it the National Firearms Disagreement.
Find out why.

WE speak with the Muckadilla Rifle Club in Queensland, which went from 2 to 30 members after changing one of their key divisions.
Now they're picking up roo shooters who are getting the bug for target shooting.
PLUS, we hear how the club wants to see shooting go back to the way it was in the 1960s and 70s - and we agree.

WE RUN through new laws the Allan Government has introduced which will limit who can use a type of shotgun - using a new policy based on 'opportunistic misuse'. That's a policy that is now creeping into the world of bolt-action firearms with no limits. We explain why it's bad for shooters - and why the government needs to do more work to improve the way guns are regulated.
To find out more, check out our article by clicking here - and send your email to Minister Anthony Carbines, to tell him why the policy needs to change.

We interview Danny Ryan, former Chair of Field and Game Australia, about the political problems we face from the perspective of one of our highest profile shooting organisations.We talk about extreme left-wing parties, what it takes to get politicians to listen, and the work being done with unions to work with other outdoor recreation groups to push back against the attacks we are seeing not only shooting, but fishing, four-wheel driving and other interests.
Get the latest political news affecting shooters
Shooters know they have a political problem. From buybacks to knee-jerk reactions, we cop the lot. Bad policy, bad laws and bad media.
However shooting is arguably the best sport around. It supports wide age groups, offers pathways to international competition, friendships and is a major contributor to our economy.
That's why we need to fight back. We'll explain what you need to know - and do, as we can all help make the difference we need.
We'll cover the stories that matter and interview the people who can help us get to where we need to be.
