Is the import regulation so efficient down under so as to make them not available?

In the UK any type of hand gun is illegal unless you are armed forces or police. Even the Olympic team are not allowed to practise inside the UK and people that have hand guns that they wanted to keep have to keep them in designated places normally at airports and they are not allowed to take them out of there unless they are flying abroad. With all that in mind I know that I can leave here and be back within 45 minutes having located any number of illegal weapons.

It's a farce really, just another one of those laws that enables the police to not bother doing any work like ISPs blocking websites and speed cameras.
