SSAA-SA is the largest organisation representing firearms owners in South Australia with over 25 affiliated clubs and thousands of members state-wide. We represent shooters with a wide variety of interests ranging from hunting to target shooting, working gundogs and firearm collecting.

SSAA-SA actively supports the traditional right of all South Australians to hunt ethically and responsibly. Click here to visit our Go Shooting website containing information on hunting and shooting in South Australia.

Our members are our strength. They come from all walks of life ― from doctors to boiler-makers and union organisers to company directors. We have ranges throughout the state that are available to our members for sighting in purposes. We encourage all shooters to join with us to defend our sport. An important side-benefit is that all members are covered by an insurance policy whenever they shoot whether on the range or in the field.

We are organised around our clubs. Many of our matches are based firmly on field shooting and do not require a dedicated target rifle - any hunting rifle will do; and that is what most members use. A popular shooting discipline is Lever Action, utilising, as the name suggests, lever action rifles from .22 calibre up. Another is rimfire Field Rifle utilising .22 rifles with open, peep or telescopic sights. Click on Competitions to discover the full range of disciplines that we conduct. More information is available here

Air rifle is enjoyed by millions of able-bodied and disabled shooters world-wide. It is very popular with junior shooters and is generally shot on indoor ranges. It's a fantastic way to teach young people safe firearm handling and instils patience, discipline and respect. Young people find it challenging, enjoyable and rewarding.

We lobby the State and Federal Governments on matters that affect our sport but we can't do it alone we need your help. The greater our membership, the more effective we are. Help us to defend your rights. Join now!

SSAA-SA plays an important role in promoting the shooting sports by conducting state championship matches for adults and juniors, teaching firearms safety and firearms licence training, and supporting state teams to the national championships each year.
