    I wonder what sort of fee he'd be charging for all of the extra work he would have to do as a licenced firearms dealer.

    Jeez Gruntzer - calling for someone's business to be destroyed simply because you don't like their ideas.... Class act :-(

    How about any of the following alternatives :

    Take the time to write your own submission...
    Engage in a constructive debate...
    Write an email to the guy or phone him and have an actual conversation...

    I'm kinda surprised you have not called for a public lynching of O'Connor

    Need to take a couple of deep breaths mate... Not a good look for someone who is supposed to be"fit and proper"

    Um.......................... submissioned have closed. Not many people bothered

    and we should not be surprised at the submissions. NZ firearms users have a long history of not being able to get their shit together with a single voice but instead spend that time feeding each other to the wolves.




    THESE are the GOOD OLD DAYS so make the most of them

    Yeah but @mikee expecting all NZ firearms users to read from the same hymn book is not exactly reasonable...

    Gun shop owners run businesses and are looking out for their lively hood.
    Some of us are recreational or sport users
    Others feel more strongly about gun rights

    Half the shit that gets posted here in the name of gun owners quite frankly makes me feel extremely uncomfortable :-)

    go back and read massives last post OK.
    Anyhow who died and made you god for that matter.
    FYI-Ive never had a post deleted here ,thats what i find refreshing.,unlike mr a hammonds website,which if youre of a more delicate nature you may prefer. they also love censorship and toadying over there.
    finally ive known and shot with massive over a few years now ,so the big fella can handle it!
    i sincerely hope this puts yours and any others anxieties to rest. goodday to you all.

    I used to like going into frontier gunshop in the late 80s , when I owned an slr ... whole heap of ex mil 7.62 to be had for bugger all .... and I don't remember john being so grumpy , fast forward to this and last year , when I went in there , he was always surely and annoyed , the other guy that works there is a gem and really helpful , ... its not a bad shop , but john can be his own worst enemy . he used to have a lot of lee stuff and I use lee exclusively .. some of his submission is ok and some seems a little off the wall ... hi son is of similer ilk , not a bad guy some days , but other days ........ we all cant be as perfect as me I know

    ..this thread created some lively debate
    @ebf its not his ideas that I am attacking, its the fact he sells guns which are used for a practice he obviously thinks is irresponsible... if he only sells bolt action firearms on his web site, then my comments are a bit over the top.
    Besides that comment, his submission was relatively middle road.

    And yes, I should have put in a submission, as it is easy to pick holes in others input now that it is published.
    If there is a second round of submissions from the outcome of the first I definitely will be doing just that...

    Oh I've tried to contact them, to spend money even, no reply. He's doing a good enough job destroying his business himself.
