Some great news for Australian shooters.
Shooters Union has just received official recognition as an international affiliate of the United States NRA (National Rifle Association). This affiliation fits well with the Union’s main role to defend the rights of law abiding firearm owners within Queensland and the Nation.
So what does that do for us here in Australia?
Well, it gives us affiliation with the largest, most powerful, most effective and most recognised shooting organisation in the world. It gives us access to information, training events and competition shoot formats, as well as alignment with many other international pro-firearms rights groups which are also affiliated to the NRA.
This is an important step for your Shooters Union’s growth and ability to develop effective strategies to improve firearms legislation in Queensland and across Australia in the future.
Congratulations to our Treasurer Jan Linsley who has worked tirelessly to make this affiliation happen.
We realise that sometimes it does not look like much is happening on the SU front but be assured that Jan Linsley, Rob Harrold, Chris Howard and the entire growing management committee are hard at work behind the scenes developing and improving our services as well as developing relationships with firearms friendly politicians across the country.
Let’s all work together to make Queensland and Australia a better place for legal firearms owners. As one of the safest and most law abiding groups in the country, you deserve respect from our political representatives and police forces everywhere and we are working to make sure you get it.
Thanks

"I had the chance to chat to some NRA members active in Republican politics while I was attending a course in the States earlier this month, and when I told them I work with the Shooters and Fishers Party they thought it was just about the greatest thing they had ever heard that we had a dedicated party for shooters. Even had one or two tell me to send them an email before the election in 2015 and they will try to come down and help out, But as Matt points out, American politics is a completely different World."

"Spot on Tim.
One of the major differences is that they have a "proper" Constitution, and they fought a war to get it.
