Gun bump stocks like those used by a shooter in the Las Vegas massacre in 2017 have been classified as restricted weapons under Queensland's gun laws.
Police Minister Mark Ryan says the government was keen to address the issue of bump stocks having seen the devastation they can cause.
"Fifty eight people were killed, and a staggering number of others injured, in a Las Vegas mass shooting in which a 'bump stock' was used," Minister Ryan said in a statement on Friday.
"That's why we are prohibiting individuals from possessing bump stocks and placing them in the Weapons Categories Regulation as a Category R weapon."
When fitted, bump stocks make a semi-automatic weapon fire at the speed of a fully automatic machine gun.
