    Question Do I Need a Police Order Form to Buy 22LR Lead Ammo?

    Hi guys,


    If I want to buy ammo, do I need to complete the police order form?

    Here’s the ammo I’m looking to buy:
    https://www.guncity.com/cci-22lr-sta...1070fps-159873

    GunCity website says Police Order Form is required.

    Would appreciate any guidance.

    Cheers!

    Quickest thread resolution ever.
    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

    The mail order form is required IF you are not picking it up in person. I see you are in Tamaki Makaurau and GC has a branch in Penrose and North shore. If you buy it over the counter, they see your license and no form is needed.

    Tamaki Makaurau...that sounds like it's a far and away country. Might need an import permit too.

    as others have said, if it is to be couriered to you, you need to fill it in and submit to the police
    it allows police to confirm you have your firearm license on behalf of gun city as gun city can't check your license remotely

    if you go into the shop, they will check your license and sell you the ammo if you're in Auckland there are 2-gun city shops to choose from and a few other shops Aswell, so mail ordering ammo is a hassle that's just not required
