Firearms Licence
General Information
A firearms licence is the most common type of licence within Queensland. It allows possession and use of single shot/manual repeating rifles and shotguns (Category A & B) most commonly for sports and/or target shooting, recreational shooting, primary production and other occupational reasons.
Semi-automatic rifles and shotguns (Category C & D) may also be possessed under a firearms licence for some genuine reasons, however sufficient evidence must be provided to justify the need to possess such firearms.
If you are interested in applying for a firearms licence refer to the relevant genuine reasons and the information that must be supplied upon lodgement of your application.
