We conclude that there can be no objection to bona fide firearms collectors collecting pistols, provided the pistols are inoperable and kept under strict security conditions.

There was no formal definition of 'collector' at the time and no formal written policy.

Anyway, it's far too late in the evening for me to give any more thought about police reviews of policy carried out well before I was born and before both the 1983 and 1992 Arms Acts were written. Or Kiwi Gun Blog's constant persecution/victim complex. I've got a club competition in the morning and need some sleep.

I think kiwi gunblog is fighting fire with fire, there is so much anti gun hype out there, it is a good thing to have some pro gun hype to try ballance things out a bit.
How did the comp go @systolic?
