What model did he give them?
>>64334898I couldn't care less what this souless, shiteating monkey did

>>64334898Kiwis arnt allowed to own fake prop guns?
>>64335330They thought it could be rendered "operable" which could mean anything from one shot derringer to explode in your hands if you pull the trigger. The kiwis were just being autistic
>>64334911>>64334917Mad.
>>64335330>>64335366Deactivated guns require the same license you need to buy a machine gun or automatic rifle here
Pretty funny lmao
>>64335404I remember having a conversation with a kiwi guy a few years ago when I was working on my yugo SKS, he had one too. We were trying to figure out how to go about designing a custom gas "cutoff" cylinder so you could have a two position gas cylinder for use with a silencer.I guess he's not even allowed to own that now, unless he's got one of those F/A licenses.Fucking sucks. I hope he didn't turn it in.
>>64335495SKS' initially looked like they would he allowed under the new laws but they quickly put the kibosh on that. Which was retarded. Now we have a pro-gun party in our coalition government trying to unban AR-15s and correctly pointing out gun crime has increased post gun confiscation
>>64335610An isolated island nation should theoretically be the place with the highest chance for gun ban success. How the fuck are they letting guns through?
>>64336051Gun control isn't about guns it's about control. It's literally right there in the name
>>64336051Because the criminals shooting each other arent doing it with ar-15s
>>64336051chinese smugglers, probably
>>64335403See you in Valhalla, brother.
>>64336051if you can smuggle drugs in you fan smuggle a firearm in.once you've smuggled drugs in you now want a firearm to protect said drugsthere have been cases of US firearms being seized buy European costums and drugs units that where smuggled in alongside South American firearms and drugs. and it's not like there isn't a native supply of blackmarket firearmsthe one interesting thing about drug bust firearms is that they are rarely found with more than a few magazines worth of their respective ammo
>>64336183The vast majority of guns in criminal hands here are stolen or sourced domestically. They recently seized a "sub machine gun" from some cartel members which may have been imported though along with 4 glocks
>>64336190>The vast majority of guns in criminal hands here are stolen or sourced domesticallyTrue, I was just pointing out that drug routes move firearms and that they will go places you wouldn't think of or that go against normal drug flows.
>>64336197I agree but NZ had "lax" enough laws for ages i dont think they needed to ship much. Maybe pistols. Any high ranking gang member can source an ar or norinco ak clone much easier than in Australia
>>64336051>>64336205It's also a pretty considerable landmass relative to its population. Lots of room to stash shit, maybe even fabricate some simpler stuff new if you have the want and resources.
>>64336160>poster has been deported for this post
>>64334918Still considered a firearm in NZ.
>>64335404What a gay fucking country. I fucking love New Zealand, but your government is fucking retarded. It was astounding to me when I visited the disparity between the opinions of the citizens vs the government.
Officials don't get to own gifts - when a Gulf prince gives you a gold AK it goes to departmental procession. This SHOULD also apply to politicians who have publicly register and clear gifts.Different country but back in the day we'd have a raffle at Christmas for various legal consumables like wheels of cheese and booze that where handed out. The preference for gifts to western countries is instead momentos like teddy bears, display models and Ukraine gave a signed flag - that's the kind of stuff that is easy to store and be put on display.>>64336183>if you can smuggle drugs inIt's NZ bro. The tyranny of distance means that homebrew like meth are the dominant drug.
>>64336051It's very easy to make guns if you aren't too worried about their quality.
>>64336160You sound like a bearded pagen I hear so much about.
>>64337035Is this a (former) automatic center punch?
>>64336266All the human npcs in Mass Effect look like this
>>64337047Yup, take out the pin, cut a firing pin tab out of the bolt, attach a charging handle to it and cut a slot in the body and you've got a very crude, somewhat dangerous weapon for a dew dollars. Pretty common of late down under.
It blew my mind when I found out New Zealand has a Chief Censor's Office who can sentence you to up to a decade in prison for reading illegal configurations of words, such as the Christchurch Shooter's ManifestoBut if you can prove that you're a licensed member of a press organization or law enforcement, you can be granted temporary access to illegal wordsI thought they were supposed to be a first world country
>>64336930That's mostly how it works with government institutions in the US, no one is allowed to keep gifts valued over $20 or something. They end up with a room filled with arts and crafts projects from other countries.
>>64337248No, its a faggot country really. 10-15 years ago it was easy to flex on Australians because we had the same lifestyle they did, but with much more freedom and less bureaucracy; but its clear now that all of that only existed due to obscurity and none of it survived covid or the mosque shooting. Now anybody with prospects moves to Brisbane.
>>64334911is that why you commented?
>>64337510yes
>>64337248The United States is the only Anglo country in which free speech is a right. That's not hyperbole; it's just a regrettable fact.
>>64337248What good would letting people read it do?
>>64335403
>>64337798As of now, yeah sure
>>64338176The kvecthing over that bill is based on a very loose "worst case" reading and application of its text.
>>64338180>kvetchingWhy are you using Jewish words? Are you a Jew?
>>64337041>a bearded pagen I hear so much about.Kash Patel?
>>64336190Why do they have a pistol brace on it? As far as I knew braces were an American thing to circumvent the ATF? If you're already breaking the law having a firearm in nz, why not put a normal stock on it?
>>64338646Get a load of this schmuck.
>>64338797they aren't too picky about the "airsoft" furniture they get from china to build oit the guns. if the end user wants he can.
>>64337323That's why I left Brisbane. Full of fat Samoan road workers with NZ passports
