“Their story has strongly divided opinion between those who believe they
were cold-blooded killers and those who consider them to be folk heroes and
symbols of Irish-Australian resistance against the Anglo-Australian ruling
class.”

for two years}

Mr Leski said the gun had disappeared for 20 years after the siege and was
said to have been found on the banks of the Murrimbidgee river by a local
who sold it to a Queensland gunsmith named HP Hansen.

It had been in the Hansen family since 1900 and was being sold by a
descendant, he added.

“Dan Kelly’s gun is remarkable not only because of its rarity and link to
one of the most significant events in Australia’s history, but because it
has remained with the one family since its acquisition in 1900,” said
Mr Leski.

The Kelly gang exploits have been the subject of numerous films and television
series.

Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger played the lead role in the 1970 movie “Ned
Kelly”, while Heath Ledger starred as the bandit in a 2003 remake.

Kelly has also been the inspiration for many books, most notably Peter Carey’s
novel “True History of the Kelly Gang”, which won the 2001 Booker
Prize.
