Yeah and there are a few million more Aussies so compare things in the right perspective, and can you quote me the gun death figures for both countries ???
And tell me what the fuck do you need with a semi auto 7.62, would you use it to stop a charging mob of goats from killing you ???
There are places for these types of weapons and NZ doesn't really need them !!

What do you need with a gun full stop? This is New Zealand. A first world country where normal people can buy meat from the supermarket. You don't need to hunt. What makes you think you should be allowed to own a high powered gun? How do I know you won't try and shoot me with it?

Hey no sudden change, I have the background and the experience to use one.
But what I cant believe is that NZ doesn't have a basic fire arms registry, just for starters.
Which just leaves it wide open for mis-use.

Really? What did registration get you in Aussie? The ability for your politicians to confiscate all your semis and pumps and later on handguns over 9mm. Now they are looking at lever actions. And you want that shit here? Who put you up to this thread reply? John Howard?

That's a really dumb scenario. Hunting is a perfectly legitimate use for a semi-auto 7.62. I'm yet to be charged by a goat, but using my SKS on my last outing, I was able to kill 7 out of a mob of 8. I was limited by A-cat magazine capacity. Guess I should've had 7 in the mag AND one up the spout. That's my kind of mass shooting. Might've been able to get 2/8 with a both action if I were lucky.
