    Christ, another form, so something can fit into another box to make someone in a concrete office on top of a hill feel good about themselves spend more time filling them em, then filling varmints with lead !
    Grouchy Smurf had it right all along...

    Its great to see national associations now either informing their members or advertising Save Our Pistol Grips: Home on their websites.

    To date these national associations have participated in helping unify firearm owners:

    Pistol New Zealand
    NZ Service Rifle Association
    NZ Antique and Historical Arms Association
    NZ Airgun Field Target Association
    The Sporting Shooters Association of NZ

    The list grows daily

    Fantastic Digit
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Retailers that have participated so far are:
    Serious Shooters

    Oceania Defence
    Barnaul

    But in saying that staff and owners at lot of the well known retailers have also made a submission.

    We have had one retailer who is anti.

    Participation from all firearm sectors has been great

    I wont say but it was one retailer who asked not to be contacted again when we emailed retailers - or those that we could find.

    The main point is that support has been fantastic!

    Anti? Why? If more people can buy ar's that's got to be good for them.

    If anyone here receives email or information about saveourpistolgrips from a retailer/manufacturer/org/association etc, please let us know so that we can at least acknowledge them.

    I think you ought to add Sir Jerry the G/G to your recipient list.. he is the head of the executive council that would consider regulations.

    GG seems to be a very private individual with no public email address and a formal process to go through when making submissions. Politicians on the other hand are publicly available and thanks to LegaSea set a precedent in the submission process to politicians.
