[edit] Gun politics in Australia

Good work! This is a long shot but since I gather you're involved in anti-gun control lobbying I don't suppose by any chance you'd have a copy of any of the government advertising for the national gun buybacks? It would be great to have a scanned image as an illustration of the article. Also if you had an photos from protests etc they'd fit in well too. --Russell E 12:01, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks Russell. I don't have either of those. There was a Govt website 'australiangunbuyback.gov.au' which was up for a LONG time. It was mostly text, so the Wayback Machine should have it all. The SSAA research team (eg Paul Peake) would have some, I am told they have an extensive clipping database.

For demos, I had some photos from the 2002 demo in Perth I will look for. The flak jacket would be a beaty, but the photocopy I have is a flat and awful image. It is in that article 'spinning a tale'. ChrisPer 02:59, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

Chris, I would also like to show my appreciation for the work you have done on this article. You really demonstrate a good balance in your research on this issue. Thanks! --Sebiiau (talk) 07:44, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
