Good to see police solving real crime relating to firearms illegally in hands of crims.
Tauranga man jailed after an AK47 and four other rifles found at his home - NZ Herald
But .... pity that the judge only saw fit to give the guy 25 mo ?? wtf ?
With a career track record like he's got including priors for illegal possession of firearms & gang connections ..... they should throw away the damn key.
Reporting an AK-47 as a "high powered rifle" is pathetic.
Anything more than a kids slug gun is Hipowered to reporters. Glad they gave some jail time rather than one or two monts PD as most other cases.Quote:

With his previous history he should have got 10yrs!

I can think of several more effective ways to free up space in our jails. Clearly in this case and many others, several stints in jail have failed to rehabilitate, so why bother wasting more tax payer $ ???
