I see what you mean.
If you happen to have a firearms licence in your home country you might be able to get a “visitor firearms licence” and a correso ding import permit as if the springer airgun was a firearm.
The two departments you will need to clear it with ate customs and the police. In principle, once you are here in NZ and have the spring airgun, you would be allowed to keep it, just as if youd bought it in NZ. Customs on their web site point you to the police website but you might be able to get more specific advice if you can figure out a phone number yo call and can afford to wait onthe line to get someone who can give advice on airguns.
You could also make a post on the forum asking for contact details of a lawyer specialising in firearms matters (there are a couple) and get in touch.
It will probably be quite straightforward.
