Visitor to Australia - am I allowed to shoot & hunt?
Hi guys

I will be visiting Coff's Harbour for 4 days in September. A friend has invited me to shoot some foxes on a farm.

I will NOT be bringing my own gun.

Am I allowed to use a gun during my visit if I am with a local licensed person?

or Do I need to apply for a permit.

I have checked the NSW website and the visitor permit form is not available at the moment. I've emailed them and am awaiting response.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

In NZ a licensed person can supervise the shooting or hunting of an unlicensed person. But only one gun between the two.
