QMRC Community Help Programs;

Australia has a Permanent National Firearms Amnesty (since July 2021) allowing people to surrender unregistered, unwanted, or illegal firearms, parts, and ammo anonymously and without penalty to police or licensed dealers, aiming to reduce gun crime and improve safety.
Here are some examples of unregistered firearms:
- Firearms that should have been registered or surrendered during the 1996-1997 buyback but were not
- Firearms handed down to family members as part of deceased estates
- Firearms possessed by people who do not have the appropriate type of licence.
How it Works:
- Anonymity & No Penalty: Surrender items without fear of prosecution.
- Items Accepted: Unregistered firearms, illegal firearms, unwanted firearms, firearm parts, and ammunition.
Key Goal:
- To remove dangerous, unregistered firearms from circulation to prevent them from falling into the wrong hands.
