Gun politics in Australia consists of just the two sides of gun control versus the gun rights of sportsmen, with no inclusion on the gun rights side of self-defence rights as in America, as there is no 2nd Amendment equivalent.
Typically, no license or advanced training beyond just gun familiarization (for rental guns) and range rules familiarization is usually required for using a shooting range in the United States; the only common requirement is that the shooter must be 21 years old (or have a guardian present), and must sign a waiver prior to shooting.
Gun politics issues are a concern for shooting enthusiasts, who feel that their access to public shooting ranges is being infringed.

In the real world, lasers are often used for sighting, ranging and targeting for guns; but the laser beam is not the source of the weapon's firepower.
This is only for target practice without using up ammunition; it has the disadvantage (for a shotgun user) that the beam travels instantaneously and straight without teaching the shooter to allow for the effects of wind deflecting the fired shot and the target moving while the shot travels.

Employed either as a direct contact of from stand-off distance, as a stun gun, the EMD effect causes an immediate uncontrollable contraction of the muscle tissue that result in physical debilitation regardless of pain tolerance or mental focus.
Existing EMD weapons require physical contact with the target using hand held shockers or stun guns, such as the Taser, which uses compressed air cartridge to fire a pair of darts at the target.
