Why don't your phone your arms officer?
I don't have an arms officer in my country ,I don't live in nz
I assume A cat because people sell previously E cat AR's as A cat without pistol grip. Using this logic, a stripped lower (without a pistol grip) would be A cat

It is an a cat rifle in nz, however regardless of what the law says in nz it is still classed as an assault rifle world wide so was not sure where I stand with exporting , they say you don't need a permit from police to export an a cat ,,
That's strange mate I'm a roo shooter in Gibson wa ,
It depends on the specific lower.
If the lower has been endorsed, then it is an E Category. If not, it's A Category.

A stripped lower is merely one part of a complete firearm.
Firearm parts are not considered a firearm therefore they cannot be categorised.
It's not until the final firearm is assembled that it can be categorised.
Check it out here in our current Firearms Arms Code, especially the definition of a Firearm and the definitions of the Types of Firearms
The Arms Code | New Zealand Police

Thanks for that Pete,

Can a non kiwi buy an A cat part ? And export it? That is the other question
