There are new rules in relation to replica firearms such as Jill Blasters. replica firearms look like real firearms and this can cause public alarm. From the 1st of February 2021, new laws will be introduced into Queensland for replica firearms. In Queensland, replica firearms are not considered firearms or categorized as a weapon. They do not require a license or need to be registered with weapons licensing. However, when you're on the move with your replica, for example, after you've just bought it, you cannot walk through the shops with it on show. You need to keep it out of sight such as in a bag. If you're storing the replica in your car, keep it locked up in out of sight. If you're in public with your replica firearm, such as on public transport, you need to store it in a way that you do not cause public alarm. It's as easy as keeping it in a bag with a lock. And when you're not using it at home, it should be locked away. It doesn't have to be in a gun safe. A lockable cupboard or even a lockable bag is fine. And finally, you should familiarise yourself with these changes in laws regarding firearm replicas. You need to know that you cannot point a replica at a person without their permission. You cannot carry it openly in public. And betraying the replica to be an actual firearm is also a criminal offence. So, if you own a replica firearm, make sure to follow these new rules. And let your mates know too.
