NOTICE
TO SOUTH AUSTRALIAN CUSTOMERS From
1 June 2006 crossbows are now classified as "dangerous
articles". While there is no requirement for a licence, the
manufacture, sale, distribution, supply or possession of
crossbows requires "lawful purpose". New
legislation concerning crossbows is being proposed and
introduced in most Australian States. In most eastern
Australian states, crossbows have been moved from being
CONTROLLED WEAPONS to now being PROHIBITED WEAPONS.
THIS
DOES NOT MEAN THAT THEY HAVE BEEN
BANNED!
This means that you now need a permit or a
licence. The
new Victorian Legislation regarding crossbows comes
into effect on 1 July 2004. This will require all
crossbow owners/shooters to apply for permission and pay a
fee. MEMBERS OF APPROVED SPORTING BODIES (including
CROSSBOW AUSTRALIA) WILL BE EXEMPT FROM FEES BUT YOU MUST
APPLY FOR EXEMPTION. Read our news

prospective customer has lawful excuse. The regulations do
not define what constitutes lawful excuse, however
