  Lightforce Custom Built...
 
At Lightforce we believe in providing our customers with tough and practical lighting solutions which can handle the kind of conditions so typical of harsh working and sporting environments.
 
With more than thirty years experience in the field of precision manufacturing, Lightforce has forged an international reputation for innovative design and manufacture of 12 and 24 volt professional and semi-professional lighting equipment and tactical rifle-scope optics.
 
We now export to more than 50 countries, delivering products that are designed and manufactured to provide powerful and practical lighting solutions able to withstand the most hostile conditions. From the frozen Arctic tundra to the scorching heat of the Australian outback, Lightforce is recognised as a world leader in practical portable lighting systems.
 
In developing our range of products we have sought to cater for most situations with practical ‘off the shelf’ solutions, however we also understand that some situations require a more customised approach...
 
Introducing Lightforce ‘CUSTOM BUILT’ design and fabrication service.
 
We are proud of our company’s heritage. In the early days we began by designing custom equipment for individuals in relatively short runs. Over time this personal approach has given way to larger scale production, and the individual user requiring a unique solution to their lighting problem has had to settle for an "off the shelf" product. With our Custom Built division, customers can return to having a custom solution made for their needs.
 
• Speak directly with the manufacturer
• Customised fabrication or assembled from existing parts to suit your requirements
• Specialising in HID lighting
• We can produce 1 or 1000 units
• Quality hand assembled products
• Committed to customer service
• Our most important asset is you the customer. Your opinion and needs are paramount
• It’s not what we can “sell” to the customer but what our customer needs that matters!

NSW Game Council...

WHAT IS CONSERVATION HUNTING?

Conservation hunting is hunting undertaken to enhance overall environmental outcomes by managing the impact of game species and lessening the populations of feral animals on our natural and agricultural environments.

The concept and practice of conservation hunting has always been close to the hearts of responsible hunters. Until the establishment of the Game Council, New South Wales had not taken full advantage of the capabilities of private hunters on both public and private land, in an organised, regulated way. Hunting is an important and legitimate tool in nature conservation management, particularly as it relates to over-populations of introduced species.

Horsley Park Gun Shop...

Housed in a humble little shed behind their home was the beginning of what is now the largest retail outlet of its kind in Australia.

Peter Abela arrived in Australia from Malta 40 years ago with not a penny to his name, everything he had was stolen from him on the ship. To start a new life in Australia, Peter worked 15 to 18 hours a day, 7 days per week as a market gardener.

The gun business started as a mere hobby – Peter loved shooting so we opened a small trap layout on the property we had in Horsley Park. With his daughter Vicky in the trap house and the other children Kevin, Tony, David and Grace running around getting shooters to their marks made for fun filled Sunday afternoons.

Peter and Joan Abela have worked for more than 35 years to achieve what Horsley Park Gun Shop is today,

Now Tony and David along with their team of skilled staff are taking Australia on bigger than ever, working in with Gun Clubs Shooting Associations and other dealers around the country to lift the shooting sport even more.

The Horsley Park Gun Shop now Imports wholesales and retails the following quality products Clever Mirage shotshell ammunition, Eurotarget Clay Targets, Shooting Chrony Chronographs, MEC Shotshell Reloaders, Counter Sniper Scopes and mounts, Dark Ops Knives, Hell Fighter Tactical flashlights, Golden Rod Dehumidifiers, Stearns ATV Fin Grip Gun Racks.

  NIOA

FEDERATION OF HUNTING CLUBS...

The Federation of Hunting Clubs came into being in November 1996, after the then Shooters Party MLC, John Tingle, pointed out to Premier Carr that some 90% of all firearms licenses were taken out for the purpose of hunting.      He was able to persuade the Premier that the incoming firearms laws would disadvantage these people – especially the large  number of ethnic groups, who were, basically the only firearms owners organised into hunting clubs, because hunting clubs would not be recognised.

The Legislation was amended in November 1996, even before it had been proclaimed, to recognise membership of a hunting club as a “genuine reason” for a firearm licence.

The Shooters Party encouraged and helped organise the formation of hunting clubs in many part of NSW, and formed them into the Federation of Hunting Clubs, which is a recognised umbrella group under the Firearms Regulations.    The Clubs are able to organise insurance, register members’ hunting activities for justification of the firearm licence, and most provide training meets, including sighting in facilities, trophy dressing and safe hunting.

The Federation is affiliated with and supported the Shooters Party, and is represented on the NSW Game Council

 Boar It Up Ya...

Boar it up Ya magazine is a magazine designed and published with the Aussie Pig Hunter in mind, by pig hunters not a publishing company !

Why is Boar it up Ya different to other hunting magazines ? I offer a very laid back look at the sport, but also concentrating on the important issues that crop up from time to time.

Regular features include at least 12 hunting stories every issue, motorbike, 4x4, fishing and camping articles. Special sections for kids as well as for the ladies. I even cover cooking and horoscopes in the final issue of each year.

Throw in some humour and about 150 pictures of impressible pigs, Boar it up Ya is the complete package. Released three times per year, March, July and November and available Australia wide.
Subscriptions are available for just $20 each, including a free ute sticker !

  Forbes Wholesale...
  
  The company has been trading in one form or another since 1983 and continues to trade in much the same area of business, ie the import and distribution of firearms & accessories, mostly for target shooters and black powder enthusiasts.
  
  We supply and support our products to the wholesale market, licensed gun dealers and retail to end users.
  
  All sales of firearms are subject to applicable State and Federal laws, there is no compromise on this point. Sale of firearms within Victoria may only take place from our licensed premises or at venues where we have a permit to operate away from the licensed premises.
  
  Interstate firearm sales (other than at Arms Fairs where we have the relevant Permits) can only be delivered via a Licensed Gun Dealer, we will supply shooters but must deliver to a dealer in your area.
  
  For firearm accessories we will generally deliver via post direct to you although we have stockists in many parts of Australia, see
stockists for a comprehensive list.
  
  We are able to export our product range without Australian taxes, all firearm exports require an Export Permit from the Australian Defence Department under the Waasenaar Convention (this covers such stuff as military & nuclear weapons, you know, the agreements to stop Saddam Hussein from buying muzzle loaders from us etc, gross overkill for most of what we sell but required).
  
  To get this Permit usually requires an Import Permit issued by the relevant authorities in your country, inquire for advice locally as we don't have access to the required information for many countries.

Beretta Australia...

The Australian Shooters  and Fishers Party...

The Australian Shooters and Fishers Party (ASFP) hopes to repeat the success of its New South Wales counterpart, in the Federal election on November 24 2007.

The NSW Shooters Party doubled its representation in the Upper House of the State Parliament in the election in March this year.

The upcoming Federal election gives sporting shooters, anglers and 4WDers a new opportunity to strengthen their political voice and protect their sporting and recreational activities from the threat of the extreme Greens.

The ASFP has teamed up with the Australian Fishing and Lifestyle Party (AFLP) because the two groups share many common objectives, including a strong opposition to the Greens’ idealistic, skewed and dangerous vision for the future.

In Queensland, ASFP preferences will be directed towards the AFLP and other like-minded groups such as the Christian Democratic Party, which are opposed to the Greens’ irrational attitude towards the shooting sports and legal firearm ownership, as well as usage of state forests and marine parks.
