Well this sucks.
https://nationalshooting.org.au/blog/f/vicpol-to-reclassify-remington-7615-to-cat-d
I was just going to post. Now I wonder what I do with itā¦ LOL
Well we know they are to cheap to buy them all back, they will probably get grandfathered
Funny the Vic gov / cops are in the process of removing my least two favorite things in shooting.
7615ās and duck hunting, Lol,
Hopefully grandfathered or compo. Could buy a proper semi with that money.
Use the money to get a collectors licence, then buy an AR15
Maybe a nice 44
Nah, Iām no collector.
Or get me half way to Timberwolf
SSAA doing anything about thā¦ Bwahaha
If they get grandfathered in, would it be worth getting one, and never being able to sell it? @GUN-DMC - didnāt something like this happen to your adler?
Na my adler was a 5 shot, but I know a guy who has a 7 shot that he canāt sell.
I sold my adler to a guy in nsw
Also notice the much more deadly (mathematically speaking) 7600 is not on the agenda, but if this rubbish goes through there are a bunch of rifles that take AR mags that are also customisable ( you can Chuck anything in a chassis) that might be in the firing line next!
Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha
There are two things that are going to happen here. It gets reclassified and grandfathered in, because composā cost money (unfortunate, I wouldnāt mind something new) or nothing will happen.
Iād jump on one, just because
@Tempestman
To counter your ābut you canāt sell itāā¦
I really want one of these but dont really have the money or the balls to explain it to the wife.
The SSAA Vic have come out and stated the reclassification rumours are bogus.
Taken from SSAA Vic Facebook page:
"A rumour that the Remington 7615 pump action rifle is to be reclassified from Cat B to Cat D appears to be baseless. Another shooting organisation has claimed Victoria Police is about to reclassify the firearm, but there does not appear to be a credible source for the claim.
SSAA Victoria contacted VicPolās Licensing & Regulation Division to invesitgate the claim and was told there is āno truth to the rumour, no classification meeting is being undertakenā.
If the firearm, or any firearm, was to be reclassified on appearance, SSAA Victoria would seek an immediate meeting with the legislators to express our complete opposition. We will continue to monitor our sources within Parliament and Victoria Police to remain vigilant on this issue."
Interesting. Very interesting.
Thatās a huge fuck up if thatās the case, from the other dudes. Wonder what the response will be.
Lol @ the anti ssaa sentimentā¦in this case ssaa to the rescue of Victorian firearm usersā¦aka their cash cow.
And another firearm organisation wanting to get extra members creating fear
As long as vicpol donāt ban folding stock and sniper/military spec 308/223 calibre i am happy
Hopefully this incident doesnāt make LRD sit up and think āhang on a sec, now that you mention itā¦ā
