    I can't see any criminals filling in an online form with a forged Police signature anytime soon. Even they know the potential charges and Lag for getting caught on that one it would not be worth it, far easier to steal one or just obtain black market. This whole article program is a red herring. Even though forms are easy to fill in I am convinced shes had some help from the inside. Think there is more to come out of this yet. Who is this Justin Devine, why do they not show him on TV, this fictitious criminal. They say Gun City rang them twice? Was she speaking in a Man's voice...."Ahem, Justin speaking....

    Noticed the suggestions of having firearms sent a police station or gun shop for collection, that won't stop those that send it direct to the buyer, it will only affect the ones that follow the rules.

    On a pleasant note, if the aim for this story was to boost the ratings for the poor excuse for a tv show they are running, last nights episode had around 25k less viewers then average according to Heather du Plessis-Allan gun controversy fails to help TV3's Story ratings | Stuff.co.nz

    I think the average NZer is over this type of journalism, bad when they think they are about the law, and especially if the police agree!
    Boom, cough,cough,cough

    Maca, take a note of every article on the news tonight (any channel) and then sit back and analyse the content. I can almost guarantee you that there won't be any actual news worthy articles in amongst it.

    NZPA president Greg O'Connor to stand down - National - NZ Herald News

    Well we will have to watch that SOB lets hope he doesn't make Politician, unfortunately Greg O'Connor will use criminality as an excuse to introduce the laws he wants.

    I'm sending a mail order form tomorrow, well GC are only accepting forms emailed from police. I spoke to the arms officer who said that it isn't law to do that but GC company policy. The fun thing for me will be seeing how long it takes for the scan an email task to be done as it's not a part if an officers job to be a secretary.

    Sent from my workbench
    If i could have a full time job shooting pests i'm up for over time.

    On a side note did anyone else spot the manual.

    My wife asked me what a "SPROTING" rifle is used for. Quality translation skills there........I sh_t you not, it says S.P.R.O.T.I.N.G RIFLE on the front of the manual.......
