Gun laws in Australia

[edit]
  • Improvement and fact check for Gun laws in Australia
    • Problems seen so far:
      • the article has grown over the years and needs to be restructured.
      • the article contains more "side by side" info than concentrated info according to the lemma.
      • the article is incomplete and outdated concerning the laws and changes
      • a section off Major players in gun politics in Australia Federal government needs to be checked. Infos concerning "A TANGLED WEB OF POLICE CORRUPTION " (see lit above) is missing.
    • Improvement in the article => fact check in little steps. --Tom (talk) 18:22, 11 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
