Following the Bondi mass shooting, Greens, independent MPs, and gun safety advocates are calling on the NSW government to remove recreational hunting as a valid reason for firearm ownership. This action is proposed as part of urgent legislation being prepared in response to the tragedy. Advocates believe this change would significantly decrease the number of gun licenses in NSW, addressing what one Greens MP described as "a gun problem" with over 1.1 million firearms in the state. The proposed change is expected to face opposition from some recreational shooters. The government is yet to respond to these calls.
