Yep, guility as charged haha.

Thanks for the welcome.

Not sure if this is the right place in the forum for this question but I'd thought I'd ask anyway. I was thinking of applying for a NZ visitors firearms licence for my next trip over, and I wanted to find out how to organise firearm safe storage as part of the requirements for the licence. I remember applying via the NZ Police website and it said I needed the details and address of an already licenced person.

Of course you would need to check that they still worked from time to time VC.

What city are you flying in to and what area will you be hunting? Those are probably going to determine where your storage arrangements need to be and hopefully you'll find a forum member in those areas willing to help you out. If you're basing yourself in Auckland, I might be able to help.

Haven't got the finer details in order just yet. I was thinking that maybe the local shooting ranges and gun stores would offer some form of storage. I'm really appreciating the help guys.

It's actually not a requirement for the licence. Only if your bringing one into the country. This section was crossed out on my licence. If you choose to purchase one while you're here, just ensure that you have found a suitable place to store it.

Just get your licence at the airport, Police counter near the baggage collection. You do not need to apply online. You will require an Australian Firearms licence, if you came from a country were firearms licences were not required (USA), you would not need that.

Remember that while it is valid for a year, it expires as soon as you leave the country. So you must reapply if you come back in, even if your previous licence "would" still be valid.
