    New firearms agency sneaks in...

    Seems that the new firearms licence checker tool has come in with an entire new agency to run it... Didn't see much about that in the hot sheets.

    https://www.firearmssafetyauthority.govt.nz/

    Te Tari Pureke is the other name for it.

    It's part of Police (they run the website, it has no unique email - emails are just police ones).

    again we see a re sounding lack of communication ,even respect from our Police in sliding this creation into the public arena. its blatantly obvious at some point this entity is gonna hit turmoil and if parties do nt communicate it simply enhances the chaos and the Polar opposite stance.

    Considering that this is not an administering agency - it is billed as a regulator of the sector - it is a massive sea-change in firearms administration for NZ.

    This is the short link to the licence checker as well:

    A new site launch and yet when I click on
    Application to import prohibited offensive weapon(s)
    I get "page not found"

    If this is how organised they are fresh out of the gate it does not bode well

    This was always on the cards as the net facing version of the Paraparaumu new division, note how they are prepping us for online volunteering of registration of all firearms here too

    Like I trust them with my info

    When you jazz something up with ethnic names, it always works better, it's a recipe for success, everytime
    Identify your target beyond all doubt

    I woke at 04:58 this morning and have been as woke as ever since. Especially since I had a coffee. Ha ha ha ha
    Oh and to plagiarise Shakespeare, “What's in a name? That which we call Police, by any other word would still be Police”..”

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Tommy this one applies to so many today - “ te minitatanga teka me te tinihanga” A rough translation would be the ministry of lies and deceit.

    One can only hope that a website hosted by Redshield Security Limited, will remain secure.
    The weakest link will most likely come from "inside". i.e. ineptitude, negligence, or inappropriate use.

    But definitely owned by the police.

    Or a more accurate description/translation might be "Parliament"
