Nothing in section 20 or section 21 makes it an offence for any person to be in possession of—

I have been told that it is not illegal to be in possession of an antique revolver or pistol that is a pinfire, where the firearm is of certain age and the specific ammunition is not commercially...

Thanks for everyone's input. I'm glad some meaty discussion has arisen. I hope to be in touch with DoC on some safe and practical ideas for the vast plinking community who want to shoot at long...

My sentiment exactly. I am a member at a club and I'm most grateful for it though I don't always see myself using it for every shoot. Some of us want a bit of a non threatening challenge ;)

Good point, not sure but I'd certainly like to see it!

Unfortunately Kiwis are notorious for ruining things for others. A delegated space to just 'cut loose' would certainly be a good resolve imo. And if it gets trashed then leave it to the people to be...

He was somewhat reasonable about the situation you're right. However it was clear he didn't really want anymore shooting hence he is going to totally fence off the open areas and put up a sign. Yes...
