Hi, 1st time owning a air rifle in NZ, tuning them is my thing, along side my full bore relaoding problem.  
How easy is it to get hold of parts for springers. Tuning kits, guides, seals, spings etc ?

Any help apprecaited.

Airgun parts aren’t a problem to bring in. Depending on the rifle there’s a few sellers in UK that will send here.

I’ve had a few TBT kits in from UK without issue - they’re a great value tuning option

Webley Patriot

No problem sending them here from TBT.  Nick is a good guy to deal with, very helpful.

Any ideas on getting a Weihrauch suppressor sent. Our importer
And the Airgun centre can’t brig one in until next year ?
Can they be posted as non firearms part ?

Bringing in a suppressor will require a Permit to Import from the Firearms Safety Authority and in all probability be just as involved as importing a PCP rifle.  To do this you will need to have a current Firearms Licence.  Full details available here:

https://www.firearmssafetyauthority.govt.nz/manage-and-apply/permits/permits-import/apply-permit-import

Once you have the approval it can be shipped to your door without fuss (apart from Customs potentially, although this is unlikely if you get the paperwork correct) as if it were a packet of Bic Biros.  

Even buying a $50 junk suppressor at the local sports shop in my town requires the presentation and recording of my Firearms Licence and personal details.

FX Dreamline .22

FWB Sport 124 .177
Fenix 300 .177
Baikal IJ-22 .177
Crosman 2240 Custom .22

Cheers. Thought that might be the case. I have a licence and have imported parts before. Easier to use a RFD.
The only dedicated Air Rifle suppressor I’ve found is Umarex Neo. But it’s not as slim and Allen
As I’d like. I usually rebuild the internals anyway.
