Its a standard firearm* in NZ under the Arms Act definitions. And why not? Any objection to that is simply based on appearance.

Of course it's not very useful for much, but probably quite fun




*note that under current Act definitions there is no such thing as a "standard firearm" but this gun doesn't fall into any of the defined categories of pistol, prohibited, restricted, etc

does its instruction manual say be of stout build before attempting to fire - done a lot of heli shooting with a 12 gauge but not sure I would have liked to have put thru a few hundred buck shot for the morning run with that no

I feel conflicted by this gun.

You are 100% correct. Still like the revolver rifles that seem ready made for alteration, it's a sign of immaturity and greed on the importers part that these are brought in. There is no hunting use and no sport I know of that this is an advantage for, and likely the greatest purchase reason for such will be illegal use.

Just because we can, Is not a great reason for doing so.
