Guys, I'm trying to come up with a way of getting our state government to have a fresh look at the whole legality issue of Handgun Hunting. At this stage all I can think of is writing an open letter to the relevant ministers that deal with law, shooting, tourism etc. With this letter I would like to include some of the articles in the member section to show that it is a safe and humane form of hunting. So, with this post I would like to ask for permission from any of the writers / hunters to include their articles with my letter. I will wait for a month before going through them and picking out the ones that I think portray the sport in a positive light. There's a fair chance that it won't make any difference, but I won't know if I don't try. If any other Aussies on here have any other ideas on how to raise this matter please feel free to offer your opinion, I'm open to suggestions.

Regards

Geo

George,

You might try tracking down a fellow by the name of Dave Pickford. I believe he lives in Taz. but he's been working on this for some time. Did you get your magazines yet?

Gary, I've been in contact with Dave for a while now (ever since you gave me his name when I first came across this site). I even bought my TC from him. I received the first two issues of the magazine and am eagerly waiting for the new electronic version of the third issue.

Regards

Geo
