Thread: SR22 Pistols

Good evening friends! Is it possible to get an ruger SR22 pistol in New Zealand? Could it be shipped here or is there a store that sells them? Link any websites that can help!
Cheers!

Serious shooters auckland have them I think

Lol in small game forum

Gunsupplies also have some Mosquitos in stock.

Didn't see that LOL

The barrel is only 3.5". Too short for B cat, unless there's an extended barrel or threaded version.

These exist? I thought that the police basically didn't recognise clubs not affiliated with PNZ

NZP like to perpetuate this myth Gimp.

We have two pistol clubs in Hawkes Bay that are not affiliated to NZP in any way.

I also know of two others in the north Island.

There is no law, regulation, or reason why a Pistol club has to be affiliated to NZP if they choose not to.

I agree with the above - the standard barrel is legally too short. You might be able to get one on a C Cat ... but then the obvious ... it will be the quietest weapon you own. No bang bang.

Do tell us more?

Pretty simple really get some like minded individuals together, incorporate as a society that promotes the safe use of pistol shooting blah, blah, blah, get yourself a range to shoot on and your away.

NZP is not the only game in town and hasn't been for a very long time.

The pistol club I'm a member of predates NZP (NZPA) by a long way.

The other non affiliated Pistol club in Hawkes Bay has been incorporated since the mid 80's

Do you still have to do 12 shoots a year?

Most of the guys at our club are about as competitive as Kim Dotcom in a marathon so it's kind of a waste of $70 odd bucks each to belong to PNZ.

Your not wrong.

Yes you still have to complete 12 shoots, have a club committee/ armourer/ range officer etc and complete all the necessary procedures and forms when applying for a licence and endorsements and or a firearm.
