The proposed Adler A-110 ban is a new, but familiar threat to the shooting sports.  We’ll do our bit but need your support to stop attacks like these on the shooting sports. 

We went through it in 1996 with semi-auto longarms and again in 2002/3 with handguns.

Now our politicians are attacking our right to hold Category A repeating action firearms – lever actions. Here’s a story on it from one of our major papers, the Herald Sun.  

During a recent sitting of Parliament, the State Government made it clear that the question of whether this type of gun (a lever action, 7 capacity shotgun) should be banned (because of it’s “rapid fire capability”!) will be considered nationally when police ministers meet later this year.

Now there are media reports that the Federal Government is concerned that the Adler could get into terrorist’s hands.

A ban is therefore a real prospect.

Don’t let 2015 go down as the year we lost our lever actions!

Our job is to reach out to as many of the other 180,000 licensed shooters in Victoria as possible and tell them what they can to stop it.

We need to let our politicians know we vote, and we’re angry!  They need to know supporting the ban and treating us this way is a very bad idea.  If we don’t stop them this time, what’ll be next?

There are three simple things you can do to help us stop the ban:
