It's not illegal to import an air pistol, spring or pcp, but if it looks like a proper pistol you will need a pretty good reason for them to approve it. 
I believe the 13xx and 22xx guns look different enough that the restriction has eased slightly. Before that, the price for one on trademe was high.

I assumed it was just an issue with pcp pistools not being imported. Youngs airguns lists them for sale and when I asked the price it was around $280 I think.

It's because pistol type are apparently not imported into nz anymore.

But yes the 2250 as a carbine is still imported. New ones keep coming up so maybe the 1322 is still available too?

Yeah I pulled a 13xx seller up trademe, asked in the questions what mods he had done as it nearly 300 dollars more expensive than buying one.
Was not on site a hour later.

What is this seller on about? "This Might Be Your Last Chance To Own A Brand New Air Pistol On The New Zealand Market, grab one when you can."
Young's are selling them new I believe for $100 less than this guy.

There's also a 2250 stock for sale on trademe if anyone is in need of one. I thionk it is around $50.

I had done 2 of those builds. One I sold a couple of years ago, but Have another, basically the same.
Folding stock hinge, adjustable butt, from Aliexpress. Turned up a mounting adapter to fit to gun. Polished trigger and hammer, custom bolt probe, steel breech, carbon fibre tube sleeve over barrel and a carbon fibre silencer.
A great plinker, but quite usable for close pest pigeon work.

This looks like a very cool but more importantly functional build too. Would love to know more about it? I'll search for a thread but if there isn't one maybe there should be...

This is a great thread. Really interesting to see how you've improved the pistol/rifle from the start.  I don't have a clue how to do most of the things mentioned or the names for all the internals of an air rifle but would love to learn.  It seems a lot of these cheap guns have so much potential to unlock.
