Having a browse today - looks like all AR-15s have been removed, including many accessories like high cap magazines. The semi-auto category itself has been hidden, though you can find the semi-autos through the calibre selection (or just by searching). I also can’t find many of the other semi-autos that used to be on there. All guns on the homepage now bolt action.
Well that's hardly surprising, the Tipples are a resilient bunch and are playing the hand they have, They are due to hold a press conference today to discuss a raft of subjects so we shall see what comes of that.
Can't speak for GC but I was in our local fishing hunting shop this morning soon after opening, and while I was there I watched them sell out of 30rd AR15 mags. There is no way these things will ever be out of circulation. It's hard to understand how these things were ever allowed to be sold here openly given they are illegal to use without E endorsement. I've never owned an AR rifle, I can't see many people wanting to own a 30rd mag for one just for fun, so the only real reason to buy it is to use it.
any idea when and where it will be broadcast ?Quote:

Mossberg MVP is a bolt action that uses standard AR magazines. Ruger Rimfire bolt action and their older 96 Levers use the same magazines as their 10/22 and you are allowed to use a 25 or 50 in them just not in the semi. Dont get me wrong, please. 90% of the rifles will be semis. Ever been rabbit shooting in Otago? Mackenzie Basin? If you use 10 round mags you will be loading more than shooting....Quote:

As for the magazines, it was a bonus using a 10/22. No sticky out thingy to jab you in the back when carrying on the sling.
Not like a stirling bolt action years ago. a 10 shot mag but would jag me in the back if I had it fitted when slung over my shoulder.
But I do understand What @timattalon has said. Its bad enough with a semi/pump shotgun if you catch a bunch in the tight stuff.
More likley the ar stuff sold out so the buyers can hand them in
how can you defeat someone willing to spend years in ingratiating his way into a licence with evil intent.
how would anyone but a skilled phych professional have sniffed out this psycho/socio path??
my local gunshops??never seen hi cap mags?
this panic buying farce if it happens just makes us look bad
We already are bad thats why we are being treated as criminals
