Queensland's peak pro-gun organisation is demanding firearms owners are better protected after a police breach sparked security concerns.

An officer in the Moreton Police District sent an email to more than 350 licensed gun owners on Wednesday, advising them to ensure their firearms security was in order after a recent spate of break-ins in the region.

“Thanks to this error, the details of several hundred licensed gun owners have been exposed, including their names and email addresses,” he said. The police spokesperson said QPS acknowledged that the mistake had caused “confusion and anguish” for which the service apologised for.
