Quick non firing video of these three model guns I just knocked up. Youtube anti shake has ruined it, but I've asked them to role it back.
Now I just need some caps!

Great One Mate ...so only filling in the B709 will do...? Or do you need to join the Collector's Club & become a "Student Of Arms" to get these into the country?
If so - I wonder what specific theme you've chosen for your collection

Hey Jim, you have to have the relevant exemption or commissioners approval for your state, and then as you say it's just a B709, the theme I have chosen is Military and Police Service weapons, I am wanting to change that to be Japanese Modelguns, would more accurately reflect my collection now, I can't stand Denix's, model guns have ruined imitations for me!

Sadly I was in NSW so basically nothing's possible ...very fortunate of you to get approved of such a broad theme (M&P Service Weapons ) as I was told only specific themes allowed (e.g. WWII German weapons / Luger Pistols etc)...and I reckon the collections can only be determined by the themes instead of the makes of your guns ...I don't know, maybe things have changed since I've left 8 years ago...
Something regarding your collection theme: while TT-33 is the weapon of choice for crims & thugs in some parts of the world it is also the M&P Sevice Weapon for Communist Countries ...so basically you can get anything you want

I was lucky to deal with a very reasonable person who went out of his way to help me, That is very restrictive what you describe in NSW, they are just toys! Sigh, why can't we have nice things.
