Fairly accurate statements allround. Other than for hunting purposes I have never felt the need to own a gun in this country.
‘The times they are a changin’ as the old song goes. Still the amount of illegal guns in Aus is reasonably low - I suppose that is one of the good things about being an island continent - it’s not so easy to smuggle them across a border.

Is it true that in the ten years preceding Mr Howard's Law that the number of Ruger 10/22’s alone was twice the number of firearms turned in and destroyed?

Sorry I can't give the source of that story.
