I remember when all the farmers kept semi-auto 22's around for rabbits and foxes. Then the port Arther operation came along and the Federal Government instigated the restructuring of gun control. Howard toured the country in a bulletproof vest, reassuring farmers that a special class of permit "Category D" would be created to allow farmers the right to keep their semi-auto ferral animal guns.
Category D was created, but every application for a licence under it was refused.
