Final prohibited firearms price list released

Police have published a final amended price list for prohibited firearms and parts eligible for compensation under the buy-back scheme.

There are now a total of 49 prohibited parts on the price list due to the addition of AR lower receivers for the first time.

"Police want to make it clear to firearms owners that AR-style modular lower receivers are now a prohibited part no matter what upper receiver - for example a centre-fire or rimfire - they are attached to," says Deputy Commissioner Mike Clement.
