Thread: Firearm licencing

Bit of news.....

As on the PNZ website, any FAL that expires between Mar 25 and Sept 25 AND the renewal process has started will get a 12mth extention to the expiry date while the renewal process is undertaken. Just had that confirmed.
After Sept 25 any renewals will mean the FAL will be for a 5yr period instead of the usual 10yrs.

You should send that to kiwi gun blog. I believe the act says first application is 5 years and 10 years for renewals after.

EDIT - Checked arms act. If it's a renewal for non expired license its 10 years.

Yes, I have been in contact with Mike.

Was also made very clear to me by the AO that if I didn't comply with whatever they asked for I would have my application refused

I suspect that will be the norm until someone with deep pockets challenges them on it and they get slapped down in court. Again.

They have been monitoring this site and kiwi gun blog for years.
