Buying a Rifle or Shotgun in Queensland

You should receive a letter showing your updated list of firearms ownership in a few weeks.

FAQ

  • It’s been a long time and I haven’t heard! If it’s been a month since you submitted paperwork, call weapons licensing on 07 3015 7777. Ask simply if they have received your paperwork and if they have a case number yet.
  • **What storage is required for these firearms?

** According to my interpretation of the Weapons Regulations (1996) Section 60 (Queensland), for Cat A/B weapons: * You are required to store your firearms unloaded in a locked container with the bolt removed or the action open. * The container must be rigid and made of solid steel or timber. * If it weighs less than 150kg, it must be securely fixed to the floor or frame of the structure it is in. * The locking mechanism must be a sturdy combination/padlock or other keyed lock. * This storage does not need to be at your primary place of residence - for example I have all my firearms stored at my friend’s house, where there is sufficient storage which meets the above requirements. * Handguns/Cat H are different, basically only metal and needs to be bolted to the frame regardless of weight.
