Neil Mitchell clashes with Shooters Party member over lever-action shotguns

Tom Elliott

Gun control is back on the agenda after Senator David Leyonhjelm demanded the government relax restrictions on the Adler A110. 

The Senator wants restrictions on the powerful lever-action shotgun dropped in return for his vote on union-curbing legislation.

Mr Bourman, a former policeman himself, said the advice was written by bureaucrats who are too far removed from the street.
