Found it -
1997 Amendment Section 4
Didn't know this section existed - then again I don't do any Vermin shooting currently, only range shooting.
1997 Amendment Section 4

I see these are being advertised in Gun Mart .
Doesn't say if single shot or revolver but from the above I would think single shot.
Anyone got one or any further information?
Wouldnt mind one for the rats.
