National Firearms Agreement

The National Firearms Agreement (NFA) is an Australian policy established in 1996 to reduce gun violence and improve safety. It includes measures such as strict licensing requirements, mandatory gun safekeeping, and a ban on certain semi-automatic and automatic firearms. The agreement also promotes background checks and limits on firearm types to prevent illegal access. Overall, it aims to balance responsible gun ownership with community safety by controlling access to firearms and reducing the risk of gun-related crimes and accidents.
