I always understood that if a seller did not provide a service their customer's wanted, then the customer was justified in walking away.

Am I wrong?

Have you forgotten the idiocies of NZ Customs when climbing aboard Constable Plod's wagon which was being pulled by the Show Pony and deeming that "parts" included slings, scopes, and other non essential parts?

So could you please be a little more precise and define "parts" before spreading what appears to be "false news?" Further, by "define", I mean a link to the Statute / regulation / order in council/ /whatever that defines "Parts", NOT a throw away line like " the local arms officer said" because that is meaningless.

Thank You.

This sufficient for you?

I don't know how I can be any clearer in asking you to define a "part" of a fire arm, but I'll make one last attempt.

1...You have drawn our attention to an extract from a copy of something. Whatever is the extracted copy from?

2...That copy uses the words "non prohibited part." Give us credit for understanding that if a part was a "prohibited" part, then because they have been defined, there is an issue.

But what parts of a firearm are "non prohibited".

I have already pointed out the earlier stupid use of classifying scopes and slings as part of a firearm and if the definition of a "non prohibited part" is to be considered as "it is not named as a prohibited part" , we are right back to where we were with the earlier lunacy.

To make something illegal, the obvious first step is to identify it. Nowhere do I see any such identification, but, as you saw cause to create a post on this matter, could you please either

3 list ;the "non prohibited parts" of a fire arm;
or
4...provide a link to a list of "non prohibited parts".

This would assist our members and we would be most grateful and I for one, would not accept Constable Plod making a decision on what is a "non prohibited part " whenever the mood or situation may happen to suit him.

Thank You.

Where have you been living for the past 6 months, as you seem unaware of the new laws that have been written and will be implemented into legislation 6 months from date of signing. The best bit is police also cant quantify what a prohibited or non prohibited part is. So we just have to wait till some poor sap get pinged for possesing something untill it is clarified. My guess is a non prohibited part is a non MSSA part. As for links, well you can look at the legislation on the govt website, I dont need to bother posting links. Perhaps on the 24th police will define exactly what parts are referred to. Did you know that after the 24th, possesion of ammo by a non licence holder is also good for jail time, and to put the icing on the cake, possesion is deemed to be in the same location as the ammo (for a non LFO person) eg house sitting for an LFO and there is some ammo stached in a drawer.

Great except MSSA's such as they were no longer exist in law. Really what it is is the Po Po mking shit up ("policy") om the hoof, as they go and then it effectively being rubber stamped by the pony's mob and we who are actually effected left to try and figure out wht we have to do to keep ourselves on the right side of the rules. Its all getting a bit hard and eventually most will give it away for that reason.........................which I believe is the ultimate end game anyway.

I mean if you look in my truck I am sure if you looked hard enough you could find a live round or 2 rolling around in the dash or under the seats and that would mean my wife could effectively be in possetion of ammo as a non licence holder WTF

Yes you are correct, and that is the danger we face after the 24th.

Got Winchester .22 subs for $8 a packet from them this morning.
