ESSENTIAL INFORMATION

In October 2008 the NSW Firearms Laws were changed allowing unlicensed people (over 12 years of age) to shoot on approved ranges under supervision of a licensed shooter, once they have completed a declaration form.

FIREARM USAGE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS

You are not required to have a firearms license however if unlicensed each participant must be approved on the day of the session by filling in the NSW Police Force – Firearms Registry Declaration (P650). The declaration is for approval to use a firearm on an approved shooting range declaring that over the past 10 years the participant has been of good behaviour and mental stability. Drivers licence/Passport or similar is required to be shown on the day also.

Participants under 18 years must have parental or guardian consent on the NSW Police Force – Firearms Registry Declaration (P650).

The Minimum age is 12 years.

Participants under 16 years must be accompanied by an adult.
