Licensed firearms owners hoping ACT can convince scrapping the Firearms Registry

Hugh Devereux-Mack told Jack Tame registering their firearms is burdensome and makes them a target.

He claims the register potentially puts them at risk by saying where they live, who is in the household and where the guns are stored.
