So has accountability and boundaries. We have given up on dealing with the real problem, instead we put safety nets etc everywhere. Another example is driving, lowering speed limits, safety barriers going up everywhere. NOTHING is done to address the poor driving skills, just take the $ off the ones who exceed the speed limit by 4km. The same goes with firearm offending, easier to screw the legal firearm owners than deal with the criminal firearm offenders. Enuff dribble, have a happy and safe Easter.

Fuck I'm pleased to see so many people on here that never fuck up. In fact it's fucking stunning to have such a perfect bunch of firearms users around.

Myself however am not one of them, cause I make mistakes and a know a lot of others that make them too, even with firearms. If the MAIN rule of firearm safety is followed there shouldn't be a death. There is only five basic rules, the last two were put in place by some cock smokers. Funnily enough I have seen several cops break one of those extra rules several times.

Yep the guy fucked up, yep he was fucking lucky no one was hurt. Pleased to see all the perfects around here have got him jailed for years even before they have heard any of the story. Now I will also assume these perfects around here have NEVER had a traffic ticket, or a car crash that was their fault, never had a hairy moment driving offroad with someone else in the vehicle. Because that would be dangerous and life threatening....

On ya WW. More for me.

wire hunt-dunno whats got under your foreskinbut consider this -WTFvdidnt this bloke check that firearm when he picked it up ,before it was placed in the bloody vehicleand if above threads are as quoted wtf are you doing reaching over the back seat to grab the bloody thing?????oops maybe too tired to get out of car go to back door open it and carefully remove the firearm.as for your wee diatribe on mistakes -you sold yourself right down the drain stating ruleswere made by "cocksmokers!"
weve all made mistakes myself included but from those mistakes has come my absolute determination to minimise any chance i or a person under my supervision will repeat it.I owe that to my fellow firearms owners -after all it seems the idiocy of one(unlike fucking drinkdrivers)is freely used to tar all of us as uncouth incompetent fools.polisof course love this -overlooking the glaring fact they have never legally made an iota of difference to the road tollwith all their selct committees bluster and bullshit.

One of the great things about the rules is that you generally have to fuck up more than one to hurt someone. Yes people make mistakes but you need to make a number at the same time ie not treating the firearm as loaded, not pointing in a safe direction, Loading a firearm before being ready to fire etc...

Ok @kotuku, if their not cock smokers then why are they trying to bring in a law that is already in place and has been since the last round of law changes? What that also does is shows just how incompetent the people and the people feeding them information are. Ergo, cock smokers.
So we have people recommending to other people BUT the people doing the recommending don't even know the laws themselves. And they should, being the police.

Fixed that for you @300CALMAN ....at the same time ie not pointing in a safe direction, not treating the firearm as loaded, Loading a firearm before being ready to fire etc...

@Wirehunt-Im not going to indulge in some emotion laden conundrum-there is no point .Youhave your POV-that is your inaliable right to hold that.your expression of your POVdoes let you down .personally the last two of the seven rules make perfect commonsense-id have thought cocksmokers or no cocksmokers makes little difference IMO.

We did just fine before they decided to muddy the waters. They were unwritten rules. The cops can't keep up with the rules and laws now, why make it more unclear?

the cops are just servants of the incumbent governing body-that governing body in response to the malfeasant /ignorant chirpings of assorted entities indulges in the anti firearms lawmaking exercise.
For that matter if you feel so uptight contact the cops and remind them of justice jillian mallons verdict and comments in the free standing pistolgrip issue.

High population = more idiot's = more laws.

Saw today they have a new sign on the door of their Auckland store "All firearms must be unloaded before entering these premises"

ffs at least the guy sounds like hes taken responsibility for his actions good on you for that part of it

a mate of mine once brought an old 30-30 winchester at a gun show (years ago) he was cycleing the action and dry fireing the rifle the rifle was checked clear but he didn’t see the follower wasn’t there after dry fireing 5 or 6 times a round that was stuck in the tube mag dislodged fed into the chamber and when he pulled the trigger the rifle discharged lucky he was pointing the rifle in a safe direction and the round didn’t go anywhere unsafe

I've nearly done the same with a BSA sportsman 15 .22lr, luckily I noticed the round chamber.
A mate had a round jammed in his Benelli m2 after duck shooting down the coast, if my mates floor wasn't concrete he'd have had a nice new underfloor ventilation

Yes he went to the cops cos he knew he was in the do do, but did he get in contact with the owner of the damaged car to repair the damage that he caused? Perhaps MSSPNZ can answer that. If he has not sorted full repairs either in person or via the insirance company, then in my view, he has not taken full responsibility, merely tried to protect his own arse...
