What happened
The NSW government recently enacted new strict gun laws following a terror attack in December. Local firearms businesses have claimed they have lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in trade since these laws passed. Meanwhile, Kellie Sloane, representing the opposition, unveiled a plan to freeze the gun buyback scheme and unwind key firearms restrictions.
Why it matters
The policy changes, including new ownership limits and stricter licensing requirements, have directly impacted the firearms industry's revenue. Firearms dealers have reported significant financial losses, with some businesses facing severe economic hardship due to the government's post-Bondi gun laws.
The NSW government, led by Chris Minns, implemented a gun buyback scheme, which has reportedly strained the firearms industry.
