    Restricting freedoms on the basis of "need" is the stupidest thing in the world. We "need" very little of what we have.

    I'm simply dubious about the utility of a sports coupé as a mobile cook facility

    Mid engined under the back seat, low centre of gravity and more glass in the roof and sometimes 4wd....well its close.......They do handle well and if you need a seven seater it will be as close to a sports car as you will be allowed to get....

    Did you omit the full stop on purpose?

    Faster getaway than a camper van? Although I guess you would want to wind the windows down in the skyline...

    Now a thought, 'we' all have 'assumed' those rifles, barring the savage, m305 and Remington 788, were all MSSA's BUT airsoft 'toy's' all come in those nice plastic case's as well and look better then the 'real'.

    Yeah but I haven't seen many airsoft weapons sporting A cat features like Spears stocks and 5 rd mags, it wouldn't really make a lot of sense to fit them out with such either, as they only serve to make them look a little less tacticool.

    Airsoft guns are restricted weapons, not "toys".

    Agree they're not toys, but I don't think they're restricted weapons either. I can see how you would think that, given this Police press release: http://www.police.govt.nz/news/relea...s-new-gun-laws, yet it seems to contradict the very legislation they're talking about: http://www.legislation.govt.nz/act/p...LM3653127.html
