I live in New Zealand and will Keep you posted on what the new firearms law will be.Nothing has happened yet as the proposed law change has to be passed by Parliament.There may be a buy back on Hi power semi auto fifles.Ordinary rifles are not registered at this stage,the owner has to have a firearms licence.

Well, going back to my post about (I have a small penis) registration....the chickens have come home to roost in NZ....every (legal) gun there is registered...and now the kiwi police know exactly where to go to round them up, which apparently has started, even though they have no authority to do so yet.
Registration ALWAYS leads to confiscation.
A Russian father was already killed because a week or so ago his son posted a pic on FB with him (the son) holding an airsoft gun and Russian helmet...some nosy piece of shite reported it, and they went after the guy. He killed himself rather than going back to jail...he should have taken a few out with him.
Thats the only way to end this BS, one way or another. Some will have no reason not to resist and will try to shoot as many in the face as they can when they come for theur guns.
Remember, only 3% of Colonists favored action over chains in the 1770's...
I can assure you that your claim that "every (legal) gun there is registered" is wrong, I don't know where you got that idea.
Earlier in this thread there was a comment that someone would maybe like to retire here, we're a very (often TOO) welcoming people, but that comment of yours "he should have taken a few out with him" disturbs me, and is why I am glad we do have an immigration system in place, to prevent such moronic scumbags from moving here.
Hugo, here's a quote that you should think about: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
Falling on deaf ears big...just a drive by Adern taint licking troll, spreading the Communist party line...
The truth about Ardern's confiscation plans:

And here's the real crisis in her country yet the Socialist Empress of New Zealand won't tackle it (because the publicity and virtue signaling associated with going after guns means much more than actually caring about her own people dying from drugs):
And just to note, this is the language of the left, of Communists/Socialists/Democrats....the reality is, an AR-15 isn't all that "hi-power", the German 7,92mm Mauser is much more powerful than the 5,56mm. It has way more powder, and a lot more muzzle energy than the pipsqueak (relatively) 5,56....its language meant to instill fear amongst the uneducated, and in reality, increasingly stupid masses and turn them against gun ownership.
The NZ PM is a Commie whore, but apparently thats what NZ wanted.
I don't wish to turn the OP's thread into a shitfight. I also didn't join this forum to get into rows with folk. I joined to further my knowledge and share with like-minded folk. Maybe I didn't express myself very well in my response to your suggestion that the guy that topped himself should've shot a load of cops instead. We, as you know, now face losing a lot of our firearms, and uncertain times ahead because of the knee-jerk reactions of the bitch(I'll refrain from using the 'c' word on here) we have as PM. We are doing what we can to limit the severity of the legislation, and retain as much as we can. One way of helping this is to come across as law-abiding citizens, advocating going out in a blaze of glory and killing cops is not something that will help our cause, thankfully it's not way it's done here. Please bear in mind our countries have quite different cultures, what fits one, does not neccessarily fit the other, if that makes us, or me, appear unbrave to you, then so be it.
Semis do not need to be registered as such here, we have lost the lot, except rimfires with magazines of 10 or less, and shotguns with 5 or less magazine capacity. we are to hold them until such time as they are to be handed in, switched to collectors licences, or other such exemptions. I am as angered as many other owners.
I am most certainly not a commie, that's for fucken sure. But I've been called worse. I have found myself, on many an occaision, defending your country when all around me are ridiculing it and ranting about how "thick yanks are".
Yes we have a serious meth issue, most countries have serious drug issues these days. If we ever had the luxury of a referendum here to see if the death penalty could be bought back in, not only would I be the 1st at the polling station, but my CV would be 1st in too.
I guess I'm saying we live in different cultures, hell we probably agree on most things, but how we carry them out may be different. I plan on touring more of your country when I can, I would be brave enough to buy you a beer and sit and chat about shite, but I don't think you'd be into that.
Anyways gentlemen, enjoy your day.

In my book when Tyranny becomes law, people should fight the tyrants, especially when they are going to kill you anyway. The guy had a picture posted on Facebook with him holding a helmet, and airsoft gun, and for those crimes, your Government sentenced him to death...I'd have no problem if he took a bunch out with him
We, as you know, now face losing a lot of our firearms, and uncertain times ahead because of the knee-jerk reactions of the bitch(I'll refrain from using the 'c' word on here) we have as PM.It doesn't bother me at all...she is a flaming Commie cunt of a whore, and I hope she rots in hell with the rest of her ilk

One way of helping this is to come across as law-abiding citizens, advocating going out in a blaze of glory and killing cops is not something that will help our cause, thankfully it's not way it's done here. Thats your mistake, because kneeling before the tyrant only emboldens the tyrant. You will loose everything without a fight. I bet Australia gets more gun control now that there was a mass shooting there...but wait, thats umpossible, Australia has such forward thinkimg and progressive gun control!
Please bear in mind our countries have quite different cultures, what fits one, does not neccessarily fit the other, if that makes us, or me, appear unbrave to you, then so be it. Meh, if thats the way it is there, well, then I guess enjoy the shackles, not trying to be a dick, but again, bowing before a tyrant in an appearance of subservience will not solve the problem. It may stave it off for a while, but believe it, the goal of all totalitarian governments its to completely disarm the people, and how do you do that...incrementalism. Oh, we don't want to take your guns, we just want you to register them, so we know who has what, where...for safety. Oh, we don't want to take your guns, but we need to ban all semi-autos...for safety....sorry guns are just too dangerous, turn them all in...after all, the police and government are here to protect you, you don't need guns.....Now just get aboard these train cars, we are taking you to a nice summer camp...but showers first, in caze of lice and such, you know for safety.

I am as angered as many other owners.Maybe they aren't "registered" but you do have to hold a firearms license...do they specify what guns you own? I thought anyone who owned a "military" type semi-auto with "high-cap" mags had to have the on their license or registered? Point is, the gov knows who has them and where they are...we have a saying...Registration ALWAYS leads to confiscation

I plan on touring more of your country when I can, I would be brave enough to buy you a beer and sit and chat about shite, but I don't think you'd be into that.I'd be perfectly fine having a beer with you and talking, I think NZ and Australia are (were) awesome...I have a NZ marked Club Pattern Long Tom, and love my Aussie Enfields, I had an all Aussie (except upper receiver) L1A1, which I loved, but sadly sold off. As you say, maybe different cultures, but I figured Kiwi's to put up a bit more fight to that commie whore
Anyways gentlemen, enjoy your day.
I agree. Norway gave it's final amnesty for unregistered firearms last May. This guy had plenty of time to do so. It sealed the fate of these two.
