Updated List of All Firearms Retailers in New Zealand
I think I've finally gotten the list pretty well sorted, so here it is.
I've also posted this version of the list on FishnHunt, NZ Sport Shooter Forums, and Gameplanet Forums.
I'd prefer to just edit the first version, but apparently I can't do that, so I'm just going to have to repost the whole thing.
After quite a bit of collation and research I have come up with a list of all firearms retailers in New Zealand.
This list includes all retail gun stores and all retail stores that routinely stock firearms.
Please note, this list does not include online only stores, stores that are only open by appointment, or distributors that do not sell directly to the public.
Using those criteria, the total number of firearms retailers in New Zealand is 119. For comparison, there are 167 McDonald's restaurants in New Zealand. Both numbers are as of July 2018.
Here are the numbers broken down by region:
North Island: 75
Northland: 7
Auckland: 12
Waikato: 14
Bay of Plenty: 10
Gisborne: 3
Taranaki: 2
Manawatu-Wanganui: 12
Hawke's Bay: 6
Wellington: 9
South Island: 44
Tasman: 3
Nelson: 1
Marlborough: 2
West Coast: 6
Canterbury: 15
Otago: 10
Southland: 7
Total: 119
And finally, here is the list itself:
