    Perhaps the arms officer should have asked where he was going to shoot before giving him a gun licence?

    Why not?

    If I'm importing c-cat stuff from overseas, I have to provide police with the special reasons I need that weapon in my collection.

    When I want a new pistol I have to write a letter to the club committe asking for a pink form and saying why I want it and what matches I'll be using it in.

    You can't get a gun permit in Australia or the UK without written permission showing access to a suitable place to shoot, so why not the same here?

    Might stop idiots firing 7mm Magnums on 10 acre blocks if they had to show they had a legitimate use for and place to shoot such things.

    The Forum needs an "unlike" button.

    There are at least 3 posters in this thread that I wish to "unlike".

    Is there anyway to block posts from members?
    Some guy asks a simple enough question and now we have a whole bunch of absolute cunts freaking out about it. If you have somewhere north of Auckland he can shoot on fine. If you don't shut the fuck up. Meanwhile I now have a whole new lot of people to ignore.

    "so why not the same here?"

    Because here, we have pretty much the entire conservation estate available to shoot on. Meaning, anybody with access to transport has access to somewhere to shoot. I know, not all of it is ok for long sessions, not all of it is conveniently located for the original poster, but it is "a suitable place to shoot", and it is available. Unless you would prefer that we also import a licensing process to sort who can and who cannot shoot on public land.

    Yeah, more regulation. That is what we need.

    @Bunker get in touch with @Petros_mk and tell him to fire up the Uzbeki-mobile and bring you down. I have a place in the coromandel that would be fine to use if you are with Petros. I know it's far away but it's a start?
