They can write an entire book on the matter, doesn't make it a requirement.

Still not numbered I thought that would be #1 for keeping records?

Ok i do admit that when i went in today i only had the info for the old form handy and had to go through my phone/emails to get the extra info needed if i had all that info handy i would of been easyer...

Anyone know how long it takes for them to ok it and send it to the seller?

Within a couple of days for me. Was faster than the old system, hence why I thought it was a good thing! Lol

I had it sent through to me in as little as 45 mins when I bought my AR. All depends on your AO I think. In the Welly office they seem to be pretty quick, I'm currently waiting on the Chch office to approve a seller and email me their form, that should be tomorrow apparently.

Both of my recent transactions have gone through same day or day after I visited the AO.

Edit, ok that is from a licensed firearms dealer, still kind of strange

I own 2 pcp airguns which are classed as firearms so you need a licence to own so i think thats what they mean by restricted airguns allso i think full auto bb guns can be brought /used now maybe them too

Airsoft stores have now been told from PNZ that they are now required to use these forms for airsoft guns, when previously they just asked you to email them your ID.

End of the day what under 16 year old is going to go through the hassle to get a gun that shoots 6mm plastic bb's, they're also not exactly cheap.

If its an AR or AK (any part of), even if its A-Cat, then be prepared to be f**ked around and interrogated if its going to be changed to E-Cat at some future date and time.

I've got to go get a form to sort old Digit the Damned out for a couple of receivers, so I'll see what the current rate of being dicked around is sitting at. I'm lucky in that the one AO at Central is a an absolute gem, but if it's that Rose harpy that pops up at the counter I'm leaving and coming back later, fuck that, some people should never be allowed near a goddam clipboard.

There's a loophole in the law around pcp pistols. You need a fal for pcp rifles but not pistols

never knew that jezz that's dodge I know of a guy that has a 9mm pcp pistol shoots 124gn cast bullets at a decent clip he has a FAL but to think you could get your hands on something that powerful with no licence scares the crap out of me
