    It is just the start. Things will get a lot worse as long as this country remains part of the corrupt Un.

    Dumb as a dumb thing on national dumb day! It won't end there for sure.
    A330driver and csmiffy like this.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    This is reclassification by stealth. Very cunning and undemocratic.

    The NZ Police signed all FAL holder's lives away right HERE.

    Ok, found and bought a charging handle, bcg next, figure there are gas blocks being made in NZ so they can’t ban the import of those as there is no import...

    If they were shut down for trying to reclassify firearms before what's stopped this decision from being overturned?

    I don't think it was overturned. Just a new policy they have put in place.

    Damn.... Well guess that squashs a few dreams (including mine)

    So how can it be inforced on imports when not 'legal' wouldn't it be customs and police sizing things?

    Customs don't make their own decisions on what to do. They just do what the police tell them to do when it comes to legitimate firearm imports.
    Which is actually silly because it opens them up to legal battles when they're breaking the law by doing as police tell them.
    In my eyes (I'm no lawyer), technically they're the ones breaking the law by confiscating the firearm parts with no legal basis, the police are just telling them to.
