    Hi,

    Well I have asked my AO, if it goes to custard I cant be told off too much as I have talked to him for his clearance and I have gone off what he has told me, I mean I have done everything in my power to comply. Also I specifically asked about upper and lower AR15 parts. So that english "upper AND lower" of an AR15 would be a complete AR15 in effect so yes this would require a permit. I did ask about a lower and if its stripped its a part and not a complete item as far as he is concerned, so no problems. While the US says a lower is the firearm it isnt an action under NZ law, its a trigger assembly, wierd huh.

    oh boy it shouldnt be opaque

    :/

    I will take your suggestion and leave 8 unsigned and see how it goes, worst case Brownells sends it back to be done.

    In terms of the Police import application form, this wording is what made me go ask the AO after I read it.

    Lets see how this goes.
