BATHURST ARMS FAIR 
                   2012

VARIETY
The choice of  firearms  for sale will depend on the current stock of the dealers.
 Some dealers only sell "new" firearms but most deal in both new and secondhand pieces. Some dealers specialize in antique collectible pieces, others are strong in rifles, some prefer shotguns, others target pistols and others prefer more modern firearms.
What is certain is that the variety will be endless. 
From flintlocks to the latest centrefire rifles. 

Purchasing Firearms at the Bathurst Arms Fair.
All firearm/ammunition sales are subject to current NSW Firearm Laws.
You will be required to produce your license before you may inspect a firearm.
If you wish to purchase a firearm, and assuming you already have the appropriate license, you will need to apply for a Permit to Purchase from the NSW Firearms Registry prior to the event.
Dealers are happy to assist customers with the necessary protocols of purchasing.
