Hi Guys and Girls
https://flyshooter.com.au/registration/fly-nationals-2024-perth-wa/
Just putting up a quick post with dates for Fly Nationals so everyone can get stuff organised.
I will have more info soon
and being WA and our shit gun laws that are made up I will need to do a permit for people coming over, I will need names, address, gun serial numbers, how much ammo you are bringing etc then I will have to forward this to the firearms branch so they can approve it and then I can send a copy to everyone, pain in a the arse but hey we are special in WA. this will not cost you anything but if you decide to come at the last minute and I've already finalised the permit to enter WA with firearms you will need to organise your own permit and that costs about $85 from memory
more details to come but the range is about 20 odd mins out of Joondalup, so plenty of places to stay around
Friday will be Practice and flag set up, Sat LG, Sun HG and Mon RF. will post more pics of range and etc but don't really need huge poles unless you want some between 400 to 480m all the rest we only really use 1200 to 1800mm rods then put BRT poles in them or none at all depending on the mound.. we have mounds at 2-3-400ms roughly
RF you will only need the BRT poles but will get some pics up for those that haven't been before
Lunch and drinks will be supplied on Sat, Sun and Monday
any questions just give Keiton or Myself a buzz
Thanks Peth!
Getting in early! Great idea.
Ok people, since WA is the worst state for firearms and people coming over from the other states into WA.
i need to orgainse a Group Temporary permit for you all coming over and i need to have this application in no later than a month before shoot, you miss this application you will have to organise your own and it will cost you $131 and you need to sort it out
can you please supply me the information for Part B and details for Members of the group section, i will also need copies of interstate applicants must include a copy of their Firearms Licence, club memberships (SSAA card)
and send to my email
pain in at he ass but that's our firearms department and making up their own rules
Hi Stuart,
Thanks for the info, just have a couple of follow up questions which might be important or of interest to others making the trip west.
1. Accomodation - Is Joondalup the closest? Is there anywhere in particular that you would recommend? Might be nice if a few of us were together.
2. Ammo - Are there any restriction on ammo numbers as I will travel with enough ammo for two shooters for the 3 days? I will drive over and Kathy will fly in for the weekend.
I am still waiting on my new rifle build so hopefully it will be ready in the next month so I can bring it over as well. So looking for to heading west and seeing you all again.
Cheers
Dave Dundas
@jetpilot Hi Dave
yeah Joondalup would be the closest that I know of for hotel/apartment type accommodation. last nationals I know the guys got a share house for the week/weekend near me in Banksia Grove, Currambine, Tapping area
ammo no restrictions just need to know how much you are bringing to fill out that permit above
Hi Stuart,
Looking forward to the Nationals. Is there camping available at the range for a caravan?
cheers
Bruce
@bblacker Hi Mate yes there is room for a caravan, toilets and stuff are there but no shower
