Commies just love that harm minimisation, needle exchanges, safe injecting rooms.
Actually i think they might be on to something, I think safe reloading rooms and a used cartridge exchange program would really improve community safety!

We are writing to inform you about the implementation of the National Firearms Register (NFR), a key initiative designed to improve community and police safety across Australia.
On 6 December 2023, National Cabinet agreed to establish the NFR, which will bring the most significant changes to Australia’s firearms management systems in nearly 30 years. The NFR is a four-year project which is expected to be implemented in mid-2028.
What is the National Firearms Register (NFR)?
The National Firearms Register (NFR) is a system designed to link information from firearms records across Australian into one central hub. It will give a complete view of registered firearms and their owners, helping to provide complete and consistent details. This NFR will improve safety for both police and the community and make law enforcement more effective.
The Northern Territory NFR project aims to modernise legislation, policies, business processes, and technical systems, and streamline data to ensure national consistency. It will involve the development of online portals for relevant end users including, but not limited to, firearms licence holders and dealers, thereby moving away from paper-based processes.
What action do I need to take?
Please complete a firearm self-check by adding the serial number and associated photos for each firearm, one at a time. This will ensure that your firearm records are prepared for upload to the National Firearms Register (NFR). You only need to do this if you have an active firearms licence and currently own a firearm.
If you are unable to submit photos of all your firearms at once, you can return to the form multiple times to complete your submissions.
To access the firearms self-check form and additional information including help guides, factsheets and important updates, please visit www.pfes.nt.gov.au/national-firearms-register.
For any questions or inquiries about the National Firearms Register, please contact us at [email protected].
Thank you for your cooperation as we work together to improve the safety and effectiveness of firearms management across Australia.
Kind regards,
National Firearms Register team

Dear Licence holder,
We are writing to inform you about an important new initiative that will enhance both police and community safety across Australia – the National Firearms Register (NFR).
What is the National Firearms Register (NFR)?
On 6 December 2023, following the horrific fatal shooting of two police officers and a civilian in Wieambilla, Queensland, National Cabinet agreed to implement a National Firearms Register (NFR) to enhance community and police safety. The agreement will see the most significant changes made to Australia’s firearms management systems in almost 30 years. The NFR is a four-year project which is expected to be implemented in mid-2028.
The NFR is designed to provide a complete view of registered firearms and licence holders across Australia helping to ensure that firearms data is complete, up-to-date and readily available. By linking information from various jurisdictions, the NFR will give a complete view of registered firearms and their owners, enhancing police and community safety.
The Northern Territory NFR project aims to modernise legislation, policies, business processes, technical systems and streamline data to ensure national consistency. This will include the development of online portals for firearms licence holders and dealers, as well as a moving away from paper-based processes.
What happens next?
In the coming weeks, we will be asking all firearm licence holders to complete a simple self-check form. This form will require basic information about the licence holder and details of any firearms owned, such as serial numbers and photographs.
This will enable records to be checked before they are uploaded to the NFR, giving peace of mind to licence holders that their information is complete and in accordance with the NFR requirements.
We will provide more information on how to complete this form shortly.
For now, we encourage you to stay informed about the project by visiting; www.pfes.nt.gov.au/nationalfirearmsregister for updates and further details about the NFR.
For any questions or inquiries about the National Firearms Registry, please contact us at [email protected]

As a club armourer I can do tranfers in NSW, it’s a pseudo dealer licence.
Just recently had to do a transfer on a rifle that came from a very reputable gunshop in SA. They had the rifle registered on the new NFR system. Well, that caused issues when I tried to do the transfer because NSW didn’t recognise it. They ( NSW ) then issued a new registration number for it and the transfer went through…

Congrats mate, an armourers licence is an awesome thing to have.
I can only imagine how fucked it’ll all be once it’s national. The states can’t get their own shit sorted, let alone trying to get 7 states all trying to fuck the same dog at the same time.
So far my favourite registry incident was when I bought a shotgun off of @AusTac, he bought it from a shop with his licence, still had it when they came and did his inspection, year later I bought it off him, we went to a gun shop to do the transfer and it turned out the bloody thing had never, ever been registered.
Bloody joke!

So one of our pistol club Committee members is now employed with the feds as an NFR processor. He receives all your emails of the pics of your gun, serial number, barrel pic, receiver pic, left side pic, dick pic, etc…
He reckons the system is so fucked and they are so overloaded that it will be at least five years before it gets operational and that no one in the agency has any idea of just how much work is involved. We used to allow members to pay for their gun (note PAY, not purchase) and store it in our safes on our Club Dealer licence while they sorted out their own storage and waited of their 12months probation to end. This way they could use the gun at the club and return it after a shoot.
Police say we can’t do that anymore as it’s the same as a gun shop giving guns out to unlicenced shooters for the day.
And how is that different to lending them a club gun to use under supervision at an approved club?
I did enjoy having conversations like that with the DFO when I was club secretary the rest of it was shit. But discussing stuff with a well educated and practical DFO was a lot of fun. He was a lot more relaxed on rules than I was at least at the time.
