Im the same as Brian. Happy to help but don't want to get caught by the registration business before I have to. I will ring Brian to see if we can work something out. Maybe PM me a contact name and number of one of the people involved I can talk to?

Can someone collect the rifles and arrange a private sale before the 24th?
Unfortunately I can’tQuote:

I’ve advised them pretty much what to expect they can make the callQuote:

Once the shop has psossession they can sell on behalf or some offfer storage (cost?).
You used to be able to drop off firerms to a shop without a license in situations like this. The shop would NOT be allowed to give them back untless said person got a license, but cash from sale would be able to go to them.....
Ownership and possession are two different things and concepts which politicians seem ill prepared to understand which is ironic because it is exactly sophistry they use with shares (in akl airport for example) .
You could OWN a firearm but you cannot take possession without a license....and you can possess a firearm with a license and not own it...
Brian and Bruce have been good hunting mates for decades.Your rifles couldn't be in better hands.Quote:

Especially if Brian could look after it for a bit until we sorted a way to get I down here
Looks like I will hand her over to Thar and Brian have PMD Thar thanks for all the help once again the Forum delivers
It's an interesting question and one that was asked a while back but as far as I'm aware the question is still awaiting an answer about how it will work for an estate sale type situation. In this case the owner is still about, licensed but medically is in the position of not meeting the "fit and proper" test - another LFO carrying the items to a compliant disposal point doesn't technically take ownership as long as they are held for less than 30 days. If I don't own it - not my role to be the "seller" and the owner takes responsibility for the sale then basically surrenders their licence. In an estate situation, the estate is still the lawful owner and has the financial interest but the actual compliant possession will need to be sorted. This is the question that was asked, as what are the actual procedures for doing this and who can perform the service?
timattalon nailed it with his answer. But I guess the people running the registry will have their spin on it. The one that I like is the statement "If you are subject to any arms-related compliance or enforcement action by Police you must register all arms items in your possession within 30 days" - the "compliance" bit is a bit of a catch all.
I don't think it's terribly complicated. Looks to me that if you are giving a firearm to a mate etc for less than 30 days you don't need to do change of ownership so the same thing applies here. You would just need the details of the actual owner for the change of ownership.Quote:

I read that firearms can be loaned for 30 days, after that it has to be recorded in the register
Yes, you can. This is outlined on the info page. You can loan a firearm for up to 30 days with no issue.Quote:
