M9,10,11

If you are referring to semi auto rifles -assault firearms - No you cannot import them. To possess a semi auto rifle of this type you need at least a catagory D firearms licence - near impossible to get. Stick with bolt action firearms.
Cheers

I am sure knives are okay to import without any problem.

Hi gelan, some are not into Australia. Like our double edged bayonets. I think these may be okay however....I believe the spine and false edges are quite thick....Fingers crossed! Our customs offices can sometimes be, well, youi know, uninformed.....

Pathfinder,
Tell you what, ring the Firearms Registry (yes they handle importation of knives too) and get them to send you a B709B form. or better yet, read from this site

http://www.customs.gov.au/webdata/re...ng_knives1.pdf

they tells you what to do.

Hope this helps

Gelan
