Of course, there's also the BRILLIANT Small Arm's Factory museum here in little 'ol Lithgow! It is the largest collection of museum piece collectable firearms in the southern hemisphere (nice qualifier, that. It puts us in the same league as Bolivia, Tonga and Namibia!) and has many many rare specimens of firearms from all around the world including a specimen of every firearm manufactured at lithgow, from single shot .22 rifles thru to Mk XXI Tank Vickers guns and much in between. Did you know that the F88 rifle (Steyr AUG) used by the Aust army was also produced in .22LR as a trainer? What use would an Aussie LP2 Carrier be without a Lithgow built Vickers or Bren?
