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. SOUTH
AUSTRALIA 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". QUEENSLAND New
legislation was introduced in
QUEENSLAND
on 1 November 2004. Please note that Ausbow Industries can
no longer supply crossbows to Queensland customers directly,
except via a licenced Queensland-based firearms dealer.
However we can still help you with the selection of our
equipment, assistance with arranging your purchase and other
important advice. TASMANIA Crossbows
are now prohited in TASMANIA.
You need to apply to the Police Commissioner for permission
to own and use a crossbow. VICTORIA The
new VICTORIAN
Legislation regarding crossbows came into effect on 1
July 2004. This requires all crossbow owners/shooters to
apply for permission and pay a fee. MEMBERS OF APPROVED
SPORTING BODIES WILL BE EXEMPT FROM FEES BUT YOU MUST
APPLY FOR EXEMPTION. NEW
SOUTH WALES and ACT NSW
and ACT
customers are advised that crossbows are prohibited in both
jurisdictions, except that it is possible to obtain a permit
for bona fide target shooting at recognised archery clubs.
Please consult respective authorities. CHECK
OUT THE ARCHERY NSW WEBSITE FOR UP-TO-DATE
INFORMATION - www.archerynsw.com/ WESTERN
AUSTRALIA Currently,
crossbows are a controlled weapon in WA. No licence or
permit is required, however, lawful excuse is necessary.
Both the Firearms and Weapons acts are under review.
Dealers are now required to determine whether a
prospective customer has lawful excuse. The regulations do
not define what constitutes lawful excuse, however
membership of an archery or shooting organisation is
acceptable as is legitimate hunting. Ausbow Industries will
maintain a voluntary sales register and will include the
stated purpose as indicated by customers.
