Mine, which is about 40 rifles out from the one riflegus posted, has the same markings plus the same Hamberg property stamp, striked through to show it has been sold out of service.

Ex Hamberg police issue

Norinco also do a lever action .22 I've had a play with one and it was typical Norinco finish, but it shot about on par with my Winchester 9422.

The upside is that it appears that she as resigned from the role.

Back when Guncity had a store in Greenlane (cnr Greenlane west and Great South Road) there was an old style 50c sized hole in the ceiling. What had happened was that the Cormwall Park ranger was in...

There is nothing un-known about it. It has been the law since 1992 that you must have an endorsement specific to that semi-automatic rifle to use magazines with a capacity of more than 7 rounds (15...

Just because the police choose to turn a blind eye, doesn't make it any less illegal. They can choose to prosecute you at anytime they like, their amnesty has no status in law. It only takes one cop...

This is the problem the powers that be don't seem to comprehend, they think that because its now law, people will magically comply. However as seen by drug use if people don't agree or the law...

Good point, although most of the other semi-autos also have reasonably cheap thumbhole/dragunov aftermarket stocks available or they originally came with a one-piece stock (m305 or SKS). I do feel...

Correct, the ruling applied to the old law. However I would expect any judge to take the ruling from Richard Lincoln vs Police into consideration when they make their decision.

We won't really know until someone brings it before a judge. And even then the ruling may only apply to that modification. So you need to ask if it is worth the cost and effort when you can buy one...

You are correct with your three options:
1. Put back original stock
2. Apply for your E endorsement
3. Replace the pistol grip stock with a thumbhole stock.

Modifying the current stock so that...

Mark,

What are you going to use it for and will this be your first AR-15? As Gimp has said previously pistons solve a problem that doesn't exist. The biggest advantage to them is that they are...

:D this brings up images of AR-15s secured with a bike chain around the hot-water cylinder while the pistol grip, stock and magazine are locked up in a 6mm steel safe! I love it!

It turns up from time to time on trademe, but considering there are lots of variations in types of furniture your best bet would be to import it from the US. If its for a MSSA then import permits are...

Where are you going to be hunting and will you be site seeing as well? With a visitors licence you can do everything a local licenced shooter can do. Which includes shooting un-supervised, travelling...

Given police actions on the matter over the last 25 years I believe it to be a certainty. I would dearly love to be proven wrong though.



The police are actively discouraging that sort of...

If you see one that appeals to you I'd recommend that you buy it now.

I personally don't think there will be a drop in their price as very little has changed. What will happen is that those who...

I recently bought a SR-556VT. But haven't had the time to shoot it yet. From the looks of things it will be some time before I do get the chance.

On the coming change of regulations the news so...

P.S. I think $500 is on the high side for a SKS with 7-round magazine.

Like a lot of shops they have their good and bad.

I have had good and bad experiences with them and every time the experience was good they ended up with a sale, when it wasn't good they lost a...

I does depend on which arms officer you have, I had a good relationship with the arms officer in Dunedin which continued at Auckland Central. When I moved to Manukau I found them a lot less helpful...

Since its not illegal to do it (as in there is nothing in the law preventing it) there is no reason why not. In the past plenty of full-autos were brought into the country and converted to semi-auto...

Not at that price point at least. Next common step up is an Anschutz!

Correct, it got overturned in court and then Aramona happened.
