Gun ownership is on the rise in Queensland with the number of registered firearms increasing by more than 30 per cent in the past six years.

Police Minister Mark Ryan has revealed there were 844,129 firearms registered with police as of June 3 in response to a question on notice from the opposition.

It's a 30.09 per cent increase since 2013 when the total number of firearms registered with police was 648,852…

The increase in gun numbers is reflected in the number of licenses granted by police over the past six years, which has increased from 162,860 to 196,399.
