    After all this waiting I get this WTF

    As most of you know I have a Custom BAR 300

    I chased up the Police 0800 # and they told me to get in touch with Nelson FA Officer who is closest to me as Blenheim has no one
    I get this back today

    ""Peter,

    Thank you for your email about your Custom BAR. It sounds an amazing rifle.
    We have had a few Safari Grade, but nothing like what you are describing. What sort of value is the firearm?
    Below is a link which I think is appropriate for your firearm.

    https://www.police.govt.nz/advice/fi...items-applying

    We can deal with the Mossberg at any time.
    If you have any questions let me know.
    Regards

    Scott Richardson
    Senior Sergeant
    Buy Back Team""


    I have to pay them $$ to get what ???
    Maybe shafted and told my rifle is not worth what it should be or what ???
    Pleased to hear (maybe not pleased to hear) of anyone else in same boat - as this is new to me

    But I have been a tad sidetracked last 3 weeks with mates passing and his farm sorting etc

    I guess the word custom goes out the window with the exclusions listed in the link, so whatever a BAR 300 is valued at will be the price offered.

    No you are not alone. There are an aweful lot af AR15 owners out their who have built up their rifles using good parts, now we will be fucked over with their value and we are apparently told we have to hand in a std trigger if we are claiming a match trigger was used. Fuck me I need to buy a whole complete now prohibited AR in parts to accomplish that as I brought all the good stuff to start with and assembled it.

    Shambles.

    Don't let them wear you down, it would probably be the only Custom Shop Grade 6 BAR in New Zealand, which was once a great country.

    Send details to COLFO. They may not be able to help but it will give them another example of how LFAO's are getting screwed
    Mooseman and superdiver like this.
