Thread: New gun security laws

Oh well, this should be interesting.

One has to ask, how many of these safes have been burgled and as a result, how many B/C/E category firearms have been stolen and used in the commission of a crime? What is the exact make and model of the safe(s) in question deemed to not be compliant? Where is the evidence to show that these safes are not compliant?

As i understand it with regards to make and model, none currently meet the police spec, but that'smy understanding not necessarily the truth.

And as I understand it, if effected, you're fucked, unless you take the CGA approach.

Sounds a little bit far-fetched IMHO. I've a certificate from a chartered, ISO 9001 accredited New Zealand engineering company declaring that my safe is compliant in terms of Arms Act 1983 Regulation 28(1)(c). The safe is secured in the prescribed manner as approved by AO.

Short of an equally accredited engineer coming to my house and proving otherwise, I'd say they can tell their story walking.

I can only relay what I've read from other sources. But the police have a history of doing what they want and requiring court action to put them right.
