    I'm a bit baffled....more so than usual....does this mean I can take my NEA15 to a gunsmith, have the gas system chopped, add an Animus pump action kit,
    and put it back in my safe as fully legal??

    I have an average pump action that i don't really want that is on the banned list as it holds 6 + 1
    There's always the option to surrender without payment

    One of the retired guys at the antique arms is an assessor for the buy back

    Hes been instructed to encourage people with shotguns and 22's to go home and get the gun Smith to help. The don't want to pay for the gun but will do the mag. If you insist then they'll pay for the gun.

    He also said that new guns are priced every 2 weeks. That's done via a Wellington committee.

    And that they've been instructed to be generous. If it is in between the different levels of condition it automatically goes to the higher level pay out.

    He approved used condition money for a bubba shitty hk 77. To get poor it would have to be a tomato stake. An hk 77 which had amateur hour screws, butt pad taped on and missing sights and rusty. Cracked stock. He got used as it is still fireable.

    Maybe after paying out over 1 mill for stuff all guns they are running worried about going over budget so only taking what the have to take and rejecting anything they can make you go back home with or get modified.

    By the time they ever get a list of "approved" gunsmiths out those gunsmiths will be swamped with work and you will be left with an illegal firearm and the amnesty over....What then?

    I believe the procedure is that the police are going to create a set of procedures/rules/guidelines for gunsmiths, and then it is up to the gunsmith to apply to become an authorised gunsmith. And when the police grant them the right to be "authorised gunsmiths" they will then be able to modify your prohibited firearm to make it legal and be able to claim the cost back off the Govt.

    So by the time the wallys create the rules, then gun smiths apply and be accepted by the police, I guess it takes time. Why they cant just recognise professional gun smiths and say go ahead or be able to get your mod certified or signed off by a gun smith I guess is just too easy and isnt fucking people around enough.

    Military armourer's working day =2 hours bench time, 4 hours paperwork, 2 hours smokos, lunch, etc. Civilian self-employed gunsmith's day = 6 hours bench time, 2 hours dealing with customers, 1/2 hour for lunch, another 3-4 hours bench time before going home for tea (what are smokos?), writing quotes, staff payroll, etc after tea, plus IRD paperwork for a few hours every month.
