Quick question 30 round mags . By law is that an E cat item or can you own them in NZ? I don't have any by the way but have been offered some
I believe if you have an A cat AR or other semi and you also have E mags in your possession for the same gun you have a problem if boy in blue arrive.
Just get both endorsements (like me) then they can all live in the same safe happily ever after according to my AO, I don't need to store them separately.
its also illegal to have that 30 shot mag in a A-cat weapon. regardless of your licence FYI
So if I have this right : Once you have E Cat licence to own E Cat firearm and if you wish to obtain and use 30 rnd mags youd have to tell AO that you want your "A" Cat to become an E cat so then you can lawfully own / use them ?
But then what if you havee another AR thats "A"...Confusing eh ?
Thats if they dont all become E Cat when things settled anyway I suppose..
I stand corrected.
i have been told it is just a form. why would they not? its another tracked firearm - win for nz police one would think
Going to be interesting times, what are they going to do about all the A cat ar,s i wonder. Im in the process of getting my E, will wait till the AO comes around to check my safe. And will quiz him, about my a cat ar, do i just wait till HQ deem them all E cat, or try and put it onto E?
Are you allowed to store A cat rifles with E cat rifles in the same safe tho?
Not mine, but my partner certainly enjoyed shooting a jungle lane event with it
... sorry but on advice, photos removed... showing responsible use of firearms in an enjoyable and safe environment is not worth starting an arguement over :thumbsup: No, i have not removed them from everywhere.
Remember doing jungle lane in waiouru with an SLR and no bloody muffs, GREAT dont worry about the pop up target being behind the tree just shoot thru the bloody tree Private .
I asked this question many moons ago and my local AO at the time said "why would that be a problem as the requirements for "E" storage are more stringent and my "A" would be store in a much safer place then just the "lockable cupboard" a cat requirements at the time. He said just store the mags separate which is what i do.
so i got my new Daniel defense .625 pencil barrel today CHF 16 inch 1/7 carbine gas would have preferred mid but hey cant have everything, DD weighs 1.6 lb Bare and the CMMG barrel with gas block and free float ring i might add which came off it weighs 3.3 lb so errr big difference :D
Nice. I'm getting one once the panic in the US dies down.
When Obama's term finishes? The panic started after he was elected first time round.
The current panic sparked by the Sandy Hook shootings
It was crazy during the first Obamanoia as well but it died down until recently, stuff was available and reasonably priced. I should've ordered what I wanted last year but I never got around to it and now nothing is in stock anywhere.
I got an Aero Precision stripped upper for $US89 before the panic started. I see them listed on trade me for $800. AR Upper Receiver | Trade Me gotta be a wind up
Well I have now got everything except the stripped DS Arms Uppers I have been waiting on since April last year. Have absolutely everything else tho.
Does anyone put gaffer tape or foam on their brass deflector?
Or am I just being anal and treating the rifle like a safe queen?
Yes I did but only because it was dinging the brass at that load. Now it is run in it doesnt kiss the deflector anymore
Same... to protect the brass, not the rifle.
Those black velcro stick on patches are good.
Don't think I need it yet mate as not using a suppressor, however do you want some ammo to try out? could drop it over tonight?
Ill just casually slot this in here

Got to try out my toy this weekend just been. Just hit a few targets.
Found the 5rnd mag doesn't like 5rnds. Only feeds if 3rnds are in it WTF??
So after speaking to my tame AR specialist, I removed the spring from the mag and cut 8 complete loops off the spring.
Now it feeds perfectly and can take 7rnds :)
I use the Schmeisser mags, perfectly feed 7 from the go. ;)
