new gun laws

been surfing all the nz shooting forums on line and face book for last few weeks just to see what the reaction is to these laws,have to admit am bit surprised at the surprisinly little discussion on some forums bout this issuse,which amounts to the confiscation of just bout all rifles that are not bolt action in centerfires,even the pig hunters favourite lever actions using 44/357.etc pistol cartridges will be gone as will any rifle it seems bigger than 30/06,even your dads old pump action tube maged 22lr rifle will be gone if what the government is proposing comes about,yet virtual silence from gun owners and hunters!!personly it wont afect me with the firearms i own these days,but that is not the point,as it concerns me for many other reasons as well as my being able to own other types of guns if so choose to in future.am absolutly disgusted in the NATs for rolling over to get a nice PC tummy rub for purely PC reasons not wanting i am sure to look as if they didnt care to voters or in overseas news etc in the wake of what happened in christchurch wich we think is horriffic i am sure,the labour mob used the emotions of the time to implment a long held labour policy on firearms with the full conivence of nz police some of whom allso have long wanted the same result,antone who believes this isnt the case needs get their head outa their arses and wipe the sh*t from their eyes,nz police allready had practice run at making this work by banning bassiaclly all private imports or most airguns,and making it bloody hard for dealers to do same,been more reaction from farmers than shooters over these issuses,facts are that shooters/gun owners and hunters in this country cant and never have been able to get their collective sh*t together and dont really care bout others as long as it didnt affect them personally,well now it does matter to all those who once didnt care coz you all guna lose your prized guns too mates,now you will care eh!!dont think for one minute they wont be coming after airguns either,coz allready started doing that some time ago eh,cheers mike
