PURCHASING FIREARMS AT THE BATHURST ARMS FAIR



All firearms, ammunition and knife sales are subject to current NSW Laws and Regulations.

You will be required to produce your licence before you may inspect a firearm or component part.



If you wish to purchase a firearm (that requires registration), and assuming you already have the appropriate licence, you will need a 'Permit to Acquire' from the NSW Police Firearms Registry. The permit may be obtained prior to the Arms Fair OR you can arrange with the dealer to hold the firearm until you obtain your permit. A deposit may be required. Dealers are happy to assist customers with the necessary protocols of purchasing.

Many 'local' dealers can assist with the transfer of registration from interstate dealers to NSW dealers allowing buyers to pick up their purchase from a 'local' business. A fee may apply.

If you do not have a licence the Dealer can advise on the procedure to apply for a licence or direct you to the NSW Police Firearms Registry or one of the attending clubs who will be happy to advise you and may help you obtain a licence.
