Owen Guns Museum Tour | Historical Firearms Museum

[@MrStevo669]

Ron Owen and everyone at Owen’s guns have been such an amazing help to the firearm community, so glad I bought my last 5 there, couldn’t ask for better customer service or prices. Any firearm owner in qld needs to go in just to have a geez at these beauty’s in the museum haha

@@MrStevo669 couldn’t agree more thanks for watching:)

Fantastic show guys. I am proud to say 3 generations of my family worked at Lithgow SAF my mother included. Proficiency in the safe handling of firearms should be once again taught to our children,it instills discipline and confidence which is sadly lacking today. Thank you 💪🙏 PS just found your channel, subscribed 😊

[@GTAintheWILD]

@@redneckrumbler thank you we are having a great time getting to see these amazing places. Lithgow SAF is on our wish list that we hope to get to. Very much agree, children today should be taught safe handling, that’s why we’ve had our young bloke involved from an early age, he couldn’t wait to turn 12 so he could get his license and has enjoyed all aspects of it since. Thanks for watching we really appreciate it

We have a lithgow.22 single shot rifle on my cousin's farm my grandfather bought it new

This was a great piece. It is evident the blood, sweat and tears that went into collating and creating this museum collection. I didn’t see a single script prompting any of the knowledge that was shared. Unbelievably well done.

@@dyster01 Jason is a wealth of knowledge and I feel we only just scratched the surface

I went to this AMAZING shop about 5 years ago , it was an eye opener back then , so I can only imagine what it's like now . Do yourself a favour and take a hour or two and have a look through this Living History Museum and in the way they have displayed all these firearms . The staff are all top notch , the merchandise is vast and fairly cheap . That's my add , come and have a look . Great episode .

[@GTAintheWILD]

Thank you, we had an awesome time and could have easily spent more time going through all the historical items, definately worth the visit that's for sure

Ron Owen is a genuinely lovely bloke. So knowledgeable and fun to be around. Loved buying Lock Stock n Barrell n loved the museum tour too.

[@GTAintheWILD]

@@markhorrell9213 completely agree, he’s passionate about his customer, his staff, his business and the industry. His values have been instilled in his team as well, they were all amazing and so knowledgeable

[@craigtomkinson2837]

Lovely ep and spot, Wow I was born in Gympie and bought my first 308 Mark 1 ruger rifle off Ron Owen at 15, and my 310 cadet rifle. I did not know they had a museum at there new shop.

@@ElmerJFudd-oi9kj thank you

Many years ago I fired a Winchester thumb trigger model . It allowed for a very steady hold and the barrel aim was not disturbed by the trigger finger movement. I liked the old fashioned bolt action whereby the action was not cocked when the cartridge was loaded. The hammer knob had to be pulled back and engaged for firing. It was probably too weird to become popular which was a great pity. According to the Forgotten Firearms Channel , most of them that were made ended up in Australia Cheers from up north👍

[@GTAintheWILD]

The thumb trigger did break my brain for a moment while I worked it out. Would have been very cool to get to fire one. Thanks for sharing your experience and thanks for watching we really appreciate it

[@gerardhogan3]

If I walked into the musuem, I would have said I've died and gone to heaven

[@GTAintheWILD]

@@gerardhogan3 not sure if you saw my face when I first walked in but I was the same!!

[@gerardhogan3]

You know I've been through Gympie so many times and never knew this. BTW I might be old, cranky and weird but I'm still angry Johnnie bloody Howard took our guns away.

[@SnoopReddogg]

There was another one of those M95 Steyrs from the 1956 Olympics pop up on usedguns a few months ago. Was that the same one???

[@bigtrev761]

[@GTAintheWILD]

@@larrywillis9589 camera gear and snacks!! Thanks for watching :)

[@Mountainfool22]

Amazing collection. Very sad about your gun laws. Having an air rifle have the same restriction as a real firearm. That’s very sad

[@GTAintheWILD]

@@Mountainfool22 thank you, and they’re trying to restrict them even further which is why sharing our history is so important right now

[@darynstiller8887]

Right hand for sight is for a left moving target. Not a right moving target.
