- Following the awful shooting attack on two mosques in Christchurch - our NZ Govt lead by Jacinda Ardern took rapid emergency action to "ban military style semi-auto rifles".
This action was widely supported by the public (.. including some shooters) BUT the regulations rushed through parliament into law have done much more than effect this type of firearm. The list of other types of firearms and parts now PROHIBITED, additional restrictions and charges - together with punitive obstruction & delaying tactics must have been long prepared by police ready & waiting for an excuse to be imposed.
Law Abiding licensed gun owners are now being vilified by some as nutter members of a GUN LOBBY.
This is wholly wrong .. until the recent funding cuts for the Police licensing process - the former training sessions and face-to-face scrutiny of license applicants ensured that all Firearms Licence holders were stable law-abiding valuable citizens who live to a higher standard than average.
And there is no united GUN LOBBY (yet) in New Zealand - but we now need one.
Every gun owner who values her / his sporting interest MUST immediately join SSANZ.
For only $20 you get a voice and a vote:

We HAVE to fight these unreasonable prohibitions and restrictions .. or lose all of our rights for ever.
The home raids by armed police teams have started
