KelTec KS7 Bullpup Pump-Action 12 Gauge Shotgun:

What have a high morale police service, Wooly Mammoths and Bullpup 12 Gauges got in common? 

You won't see one in New Zealand .. 

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"....ever hear the saying "That's why God made fat women".

Other than in your dreams - Back in the real world this will be a BANNED IMPORT for sure .. or NZ Authorities will ban it the minute anyone shows interest in getting one. - Where else are you going to learn about this shooting stuff - since all Gun Magazine retail sales in New Zealand were stopped?

I noticed right away that KelTec have placed a 'HANDSTOP' at the muzzle end to stop morons sliding their forehand into the hot-zone when excited or "tired & emotional".. Another gun that needed this type of thing is the antique British Webley & Scott Mk III* signal pistol - that was given a massive brass flared muzzle to stop public-school twats from blasting their hand into a retirement trip to Blighty.

Don't tell anyone, but this 26inch long short shotty can be loaded with 12x  Aguila Mini-Shells and fire them all nicely - provided you pump the action effectively .. or it chambers 7x normal 3" shells in the tube magazine and 18.5inch barrel.

The US$500 KS7 is not meant for swinging at clay birds down the club - but it is versatile and can be fitted with alternative rails and sighting options - plus bigger recoil pads. - This is a light weight plastic and steel gun so it recoils heavily. IF I got my old hands on one, I'd fit a heavyweight lead extension piece plus a couple of inches of foam recoil pad.

The standard frontsight is a 'HiVis" unit and you might be wondering where the ejection port is on this Bullpup? .. that is underneath and straight down for your convenience.

There are reasons why black 'polymer' is used on so many guns offered in the last 50 years .. It is a low cost industrial production process when sold in quantity, the plastic furniture can be tough and resistant to impact damage and the high carbon black filler prevents/reduces photo-oxidation from the sun's UV-Radiation - that causes brittleness, cracking, and discoloration of oil-based plastics. The sun is not kind to our skin or plastics as they age.

Once upon a time - guns were built with hand engraved, highly polished and blued steel, with grips and stocks crafted from beautifully carved, checkered and figured, polished Walnut timbers. - History eh.

Dream-on,

Life is Good,

It's a SECRET Babe .. D NOTICES:

THE TRUTH ABOUT HOW OUR GUNS WERE TAKEN FROM US IS SECRET

The 1996 DUNBLANE MASSACRE that resulted in UK BANNING ownership and use of various classes of guns has critical FACTS that cannot be released for 100 years ..

a “PQ” – personal question? – regarding a “paedo,” and the March 1996 Dunblane Massacre in which known pedophile Thomas Hamilton murdered 16 children and their teacher at a Scottish primary school. Police reports on Hamilton linking him to influential local figures and historic sex abuse were inexplicably sealed for 100 years, and the mass shooting prompted a national ban on handguns.

This sealed information sounds familiar to anyone seeking the full story about the 2019 Christchurch MOSQUE MASSACRE - when Australian killer BRENTON TARRANT killed 51 people and injured 89 others .. in six minutes at the Al Noor Mosque - alone?

Did you know that TARRANT flew a DRONE to plan his attack?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christchurch_mosque_shootings

- Here in New Zealand we are urged to not even write his name .. TARRANT is to be "unpersoned".

"Unperson" means a person who has been treated as nonexistent, often due to political reasons, to the point where all records of their existence are erased. Coined by George Orwell in his novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, it describes someone officially ignored and whose public recognition is removed.

You NEED to READ this story before it is wiped ..

https://thegrayzone.com/2025/11/30/files-expose-britains-secret-d-notice-censorship-regime/

and watch and share this important video - before it is removed from the web .. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYikIlT-v4M

- Before you say 'What's this got to do with us in New Zealand .. REMEMBER THAT NEW ZEALAND IS BRITISH & IS INFLUENCED BY THEIR PARLIAMENT. - And their monarchy.

New Zealand and the UK maintain a close and strong partnership grounded in shared history, culture, and values, as well as cooperation in defence (plus via DA Notices) and trade, they operate as two distinct and independent nations. 

THE CORONERS INQUIRY IS NOT FINISHED & STILL ONGOING

SIX years after the killings.

"He is also expected to give evidence to the Coroners Court after the High Court cleared the way for him to be called as a witness despite objections from survivors and victims' families."

Is anyone representing the interests of Lawful Firearms Owners?

SERIOUS MISCONDUCT AT THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF POLICE:

 I woke up this morning pretty early - about 04.30 - NOT THAT SORT OF "WOKE" - but I lay about until close to six before brewing a pot of coffee and feeding the refugee chook that hangs-out in my garden.

My guess is that there needs to be much waking-up out there in the "western block" nations.

The peoples of Europe, United Kingdom, and USA have been fed total bollocks by their "leaders" for the last fifty years and I judge that they should be just about ready to shrug-off those elitist parasites - kicking them out of power - and then to open-up courts of enquiry, corruption charges, - and War Crimes Trials.

Revolutionary Times? - or I could be wrong and everybody is satisfied with things how they are ..

Here in New Zealand we have, in recent times, enjoyed SEVEN Police Commissioner RESIGNATIONS .. District Commissioners, Assistant Commissioners, Temporary Commissioners whatever . Plus one Police Association President Cahill standing-down and going on 'long service leave'. PLUS 17 Police employees being currently investigated ..

These are the people who made it impossible for law abiding NZ gun owners to enjoy their sport.

Meanwhile the country struggles-on with some 500 police short numbered, and closed Police Stations. - We should be grateful that most kiwis are sensible folk and that crime levels are low - as there is no cellroom in our neglected prison system and no capacity in our underfunded judicial court system to cope. - Our wise and responsible 'representative governments' persist in reducing taxation for corporations and property owners. We also need to thank the WORKING Police who do a fantastic job keeping most of us safe.

Europe is in a state of collapse - England is in a state of corruption, with a most dense population, - and America is a great place if you are a millionaire or a Military-Political Figure being financed by AIPAC. Trump took 106 Million from Zionist Widow Adelson.

How is this acceptable?

I STILL value and retain my LIFETIME FIREARMS LICENCE (invalidated by decree)

Chinese SLINGSHOT RIFLE - 300+ fps. - A 'toy'?

 I watched a 'merican YouTube video review of a rubber band powered 'rifle'. Well it has a shoulder stock, foregrip & trigger, and what else are you going to call it? - I went on AliExpress to see what they had, and when I found one - I bought it. (nz$241.82 inc GST)

Link to that VIDEO from 1ShotTV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Vs6TCC9qxc

"A more dramatic effect on the ballistic dummy than a .22 LR."

'Ballistic Skulls' cost around US$150 - $300+ each

I calculate power at around 6.75 foot pounds of energy with a 32 grain 8mm s.s ball..

A 8mm lead ball weighs 46grain +-

This is around HALF the energy delivery of a quality Air Rifle

- a longbow ranges from 30 ft-lbs to 90 ft-lbs - A 40 grain .22 LR round 80 ft-lbs

Energy calculations are very velocity influenced. - if you doubled that 300ft per sec to 600ft-per-sec you'd almost quadruple the energy figure to 25.6 ft/lbs. (Double the mass and that only doubles the energy)..

However, an 8mm steel ball at 300 foot per second velocity is going 200 mph. - I don't want to be hit by anything that solid at 200mph ..

Now, this 'toy' will do damage by lethal blunt force trauma. Some testing reviews of black powder 'Turn-off-Barrel' Percussion Pocket Pistols with small powder chambers find velocities around 300-400 fps .. they did the job at contact ranges.

- I don't know how to correlate energy level with effective damage or 'knockdown power' or "killing power" for these impact/penetrations at lower velocities. How do you, for example, measure the effective power of a small sharp-pointed low-mass steel dart that penetrates from an air weapon?

Some folk say that an ancient Roman lead slingshot "is as powerful as a Forty-Four-Magnum" - well that's nonsense, but when a low energy weapon kills, would the target be MORE dead from an even heavier blow?

Roman lead sling bullet 'GLANDES' (acorns)

 

AI says: Muscle-powered weapons are tools that use human muscular energy for propulsion, and they can be categorized into direct-contact and projectile types. Examples include swords, axes, and knives for close combat, and bows, slings, and spears, which have been used throughout history. 

Enhanced Version Slingshot Hunting Powerful Catapult Mechanical Slingshot Rifle Portable Stretch Outdoor Distance Shooting Toy 7 sold. (8 now) - I'm always up for a laugh eh ..

Thinking ahead a bit - I also searched AliExpress for steel balls to use as ammo, and ordered 200x 8mm s.s balls (nz$38.14) = 20 cents each but reusable if you catch them ..

Nine days after ordering, the first small square package from Wang Peng, China landed on my doorstep - discreetly labelled as "Bicycle Parts".

The first bits of a new adventure-puzzle - Unwrapped ..

The Second WangPen Package ..

The Third Package ..

I'm not showing the yards of 'Clingwrap' that was wound around all these parts or the securely taped plastic 'bubblewrap', that was all a right pain in the butt to strip off .. Nor am I showing the instruction sheets for assembly - as there were NO instructions.

Never mind eh .. I can do this.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQ9ff9cr8oU

This links to a short assembly-guide video for Falcon GT slingshot: 

Putting it together was easy, except neither of the two spare scope-sights I have is suitable so I've gone sightless in this pic ..

The Tranter .44" is there for scale. This Falcon Hunting Slingshot is all CNC machined metal apart from the elastics - and very well made for a "toy".

The new Red/Green Dot sight with side-mounted Laser was affordable @ nz$36.50  - but it was a bit slow to arrive from China, taking 17 days to my front door.

AliExpress deserve a brief plug following more successful deliveries all the way down here to NZ .. in that mostly I have had great service and good value - of multiple purchases from China over recent years - only one item went missing and one wasn't what I thought I had ordered .. out of 100's of purchases of clothing, tools, appliances, watches, and all sorts of stuff. - THEY ARE GOOD.

Right - DOWN TO BUSINESS ..

I "fired" the slingshot into my old red Ballistic Plasticine modeling clay, with the least powerful 'two-tubes' rubber and was truly impressed ..

PENETRATION of the first 8mm steel ball was about 34mm - I located my old test image from 2021 of a Winchester 555 .22 LR that penetrated around 70mm after nicely expanding to 11mm.

My second penetration test made a wound channel of 40mm long. -There is zero scientific basis to equate these results .. but the slingshot ball with a tenth of the kinetic energy of a two-two appears to demonsrate more than half of that .22" penetration.

My guess is that equates to penetration in ballistic gel of around three to four inches plus ..

Do not shoot this slingshot at anything you do not want to destroy.

Link to that earlier story: https://flicense.blogspot.com/2021/07/plasticine-goes-ballistic-down-under.html

- Might a heavier lead projectile be more 'powerful'? - Take a look at this .. The shiny steel 8mm ball penetrated 5mm less than a 32cal (8mm) lead ball.

46grain lead versus 32gn steel. Same Size.

This Wang Peng Slingshot is great - it works - is accurate - is quiet - is fun - and is plenty powerful. - what more could you ask for? - Got a possum issue?

The new 850 kW Porsche Cayenne E car-toy costs more than $220,000 .. this is cheap fun for a 1,000 times less - I like WangPeng outside in the garden ..

A Historic Tranter 54 Bore, .45" Percussion Revolver:

I enjoy GUNS (and knives too) - using them and working on them - maybe I'm a sick unit, but - like the Government Military, Police, and the autonamous civil wild harvesters & pest controllers, - I understand and value these tools - their utility, beauty and craftmanship.

Currently I'm a bit focused on old English made revolvers and pocket pistols. I have some quality items from Birmingham, and plenty of crap. - Some folk will say that I am crazy-stupid to waste money on antique obsolete sidearms.

They may well be right .. But I have only a few months revenue worth of cash dollars in the bank earning at 1.5% interest, - while NZ inflation is running at 3%+ - that means my "savings" are losing value steadily while antique guns are happily rising in value and could also be employed for the same purpose that they had when made 170+ years ago.

If I were a rich man, Ya ba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dum. If indeed I was rich - with an investment portfolio - I would have been buying gold coin for the last several years as the metal's price rose through US$2,000 per ounce and up on it's way skyward towards ever greater heights .. It's not that the gold price has truly DOUBLED - but that your dollars have halved in value under our banker's careful direction.

- but antique guns will have to suffice.

I bought this Maori Wars 54 Gauge TRANTER Percussion Revolver (.442" calibre)

This, - my latest - 1860ish double action 5 shot Tranter 4th Model percussion revolver has Colonial Government service history, as demonstrated by the Taranaki Provincial Government Colonial Storekeepers issue number 331 stamped on the barrel and grip (see images). It is hard to come across revolvers with provenance from the Maori Wars, as many were private purchases. Without documentation they remain, just possibly used during the Wars. This service revolver is not in that category. When these wars ended in 1872 cartridge revolvers were becoming available.

The conflict in Taranaki resulted in the passing of the Colonial Defence Act on the 15th of September 1862, and the formation of the Colonial Defence Force, the first regular force in New Zealand, with detachments throughout the country.

The non-Māori, Pakeha population is said to have exceeded that of Māori in 1858.

Tranter 4th Model double action 54 bore Percussion Revolver, 5 3/4in barrel. Top strap engraved “J. PURDEY, OXFORD STREET, LONDON”. Frame No. 14132 T. Oval Cartouche on Frame and loading lever – Store keepers No 331 on barrel and wooden butt. Dated to around 1855/56. The 4th Model Tranter was not a common revolver in New Zealand service, with the Adams being more frequently encountered . It is a early 4th Model with the early safety catch, on the right side of the frame in the form of a flat hook which when pushed forward engages in a hole drilled in each nipple divider . it also has the early “S” – shaped cylinder spring arbor – catch. A quality Purdey issue revolver is unusual. - This is a five shot .442 inch caliber percussion revolver retaining some original finish - fully operational, but the foresight has some damage.

So it has HISTORIC NZ PROVENANCE plus the 'PURDEY' name.

That is valuable both culturally and wealthwise.

M1853 Tranter is da/sa

MAC-10

 No, not the bloody computer .. The Machine Pistol.

Don't pretend that you are so righteous as to not be interested in these - as they've been in so many MOVIES and video games that obviously they fascinate someone ..

The MAC10 dates back to 1964 being a blowback operated machine pistol originally firing at a high rate from an open-bolt, but a second version was redesigned to 'closed bolt' function. - It was made in .45"ACP, 9x19mm, and .380" ACP. - There are even later modifications that use .22" LR rimfire cartridges.

They work brilliantly in the movies as the villains fire thousands of flame spewing rounds chewing explosive concrete chips from highrise buildings while the hero dodges each and every shot long enough for GOOD to conquer EVIL.

I heard that if you managed to score a hit at 25 yards they gave you a Cadillac

In real life they are cheaply built from folded metal stampings and are rubbish to use beyond the stretch of your living room couch - being "fit only for combat in a phone booth". 

RUBBISH - but they look really ugly eh.

Now That's REALLY OLD ..

These did see some military service in VietNam. The Military Armament Corporation Model-10 works much better when fitted with a SIONICS suppresser - as that can be used as a forward grip to control muzzle rise.

Pistol Caliber Full Auto fire from handheld submachine guns is much over-rated by the ignorant.

A team operated HEAVY MACHINE GUN is a very different kettle of military fish.

CAHILL Stands Down From Police Association: A=B=C

High profile Police Association President CHRIS CAHILL has stood down from that position after nine years. His replacement is Senior Sergeant Steve Watt from Otago.

Detective Inspector Cahill - who will be taking long service leave from his police duties - will naturally be missed by New Zealand Fit & Proper Licensed Firearms Owners - for his creative and imaginative statements about firearms use in New Zealand.

I am sure we all wish Cahill career development within NZ criminal activities and golfing.

Sell the Sizzle not the Steak

Advertizing equals Brainwashing equals Conditioning

"Have you ever seen the magic glasses that help you see better without glasses? - If you don't buy them now they won't be available again .."

'They' are messing with our heads. - Every 10 minutes or so on TV they feed us 5 minutes of Bullshit advertizing and Lies. -You get used to it, - and turn-off your critical judgement .. BUT this repetition-repetition-repetition works like an earworm into your subconscious mind and your head accepts the lies as real.

"Ukraine is starting the great spring assault 

- The Russians are beaten 

- The Russians have a million dead .. "

- There are no Epstein files .. "

Psychologists have a word for this phenomenon: projection – the process by which someone displaces their own negative traits or insecurities onto someone else. QUESTION: Who primarily benefits from war? Soldiers, laborers, and civilians usually face more hardships and losses. Leaders gain the most in terms of power and resources. War primarily benefits leaders. Leaders may use war to rally their population's support, distract from economic issues, and amplify their own power and status.

The leaders hope that you will barely notice it when later they flip the message ..

June 1998: NZ Energy Minister Bradford said the Government's electricity reforms are all about lower power prices for all consumers, not protecting the vested interests of power companies.

Have you forgotten that? - So far my electricity bill has TREBLED under this "reform" privatization ..

PERFECTION may be True .. You Reckon?

That repetition is exactly how 'Positive Re-enforcement' works .. You keep telling a kid that they are a good gymnast and they may well get better.

The message gets in. "The National Party are Better Managers for Your Country" over & over & over. 

Our struggle for better lives for our families is not LEFT versus RIGHT - It should be how to stop the top 10 percent thieves taking any more of our natural assets and wealth into their hands.

Why is our country NZ a member of the  '5 Eyes' military intelligence group that is being used to support Israel slaughtering Palestinians - when we should join BRICS ? - Why is our NZ SAS working with the British SAS in Ukraine?

Have you worked-out WHY they want us to be unarmed citizens?

This Commercial TV repetition and our psychological acceptance of tall stories also does something else - It gets us used to hearing implausible narratives without protest.

You KNOW when a politician is talking bollocks .. but that's what they all do - Right?

Public Relations Depts. Campaign Managers. Think Tanks. Media Consultants. PROPAGANDA. Spin Doctors. Cherry Picking. Double Speak & Dog Whistle, plus old fashioned Advertising ..
