Second-hand rifles, shotguns, handguns and optics, each inspected in store before it goes on the shelf. Stock turns over constantly, so it is worth checking back or calling if you are after something specific.
Buying used is the cheapest way into a quality European or Japanese gun. A well-kept Sako, Tikka, Miroku or Beretta will outlast a new budget rifle and holds its value far better, and a barrel with plenty of life left is usually the difference between a bargain and a project. Pre-owned is also the sensible route for a first centrefire while you work out what you actually want.
Every pre-owned firearm is transferred through a licensed dealer and requires a current licence and Permit to Acquire, the same as a new gun. If you want more photos or a straight assessment of condition before you commit, call the store and we will look at it with you on the phone.

Common questions
How do I buy a used gun in Australia?
Through a licensed dealer, with a firearms licence for the category and a Permit to Acquire for that firearm. At Magnum Sports you can inspect the firearm in store, pay a deposit to hold it while your PTA is processed, then collect it or have it transferred dealer-to-dealer to a licensed dealer near you.
How do I sell my gun in Sydney?
Bring the firearm and your licence to Magnum Sports at Roseville Chase. We inspect and value it, list it on our website and usedguns.com.au, handle the buyer's licence and PTA checks and the registry transfer, and pay you when it sells. Commission is $150 under $1,000 or 15% at $1,000 and above, plus $25 advertising per three-month listing.
Are pre-owned firearms inspected?
Yes. Every consignment and trade-in firearm is inspected and function-checked by our staff, the bore and finish are described honestly on the listing, and serious faults are either repaired before sale or disclosed. Handguns and higher-value rifles can be examined in store before you commit.
Can I buy a pre-owned firearm interstate?
Yes. Supply your state's Permit to Acquire, nominate a licensed dealer near you and we transfer the firearm dealer-to-dealer. Our transfer fee for a pre-owned firearm is $50 plus freight; the receiving dealer charges their own fee.
Do you take trade-ins?
Yes. Bring the firearm and licence in for a valuation; the trade value comes off a new purchase on the spot, or we can consign it for you if you prefer to wait for a private-sale price.
