PNG is, like Australia, a British protectorate and its gun control laws are, by design, a mirror image of those in Australia. For all intents and purposes, PNG is Australia.

Uh, NO, PNG is not for all intents "Australia".

New Guinea still has tribes living under stone-age belief systems. Your comment is unlearned at the very best.

I'm sure the Aussies would take issue with the notion of them being a Brit protectorte.

However both PNG and Australia (and New Zealand) are part of the British Commonwealth, and are constitutional monarchies, with the monarch being the King or Queen of England. PNG was a protectorate of Australia until 1975.
