    Yeh well I fucked up and got that wrong. The 6,000 is just for the area covered by the Auckland Central Police. Over 30,000 holders in the region.
    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

    Like ‘em or hate ‘em, H&F have outsmarted the whole shooting and hunting sports industry at about every turn. They have seen a few other chains and individuals off.

    I remember not long ago that hunters were hot about boycotting them when they started to get hunting access tied up. The bluster lasted about five minute.

    So watch for that. Hunters might say that they will support a small private business, but at the end of the day we are as fickle as hell.

    Wish someone would buy H&F here in Blenheim. The current owner and his staff are so far up there arse they must live in permanent darkness. They make you feel they are doing YOU a favour when you go in there to spend your hard earned. I point blankly refuse to spend a single penny with them these days

    Is it not also owned by Mr Chris Scully? Owner of the Nelson store?

    Yeah Nelson needs a small shop for shooting supplies but I've had issues with Stirling Sports for any products I've had ordered in, couple of scopes and suppressors have turned up and been different to what I ordered or just have never turned up and wasted my time
    basically if it's on the shelf I'll get it from a shop. If not I'll order online
