They are still allow to have revolver and handguns though right? Only certain guns are confiscated.
That’s like saying it’s not a violation of free speech if only certain words and/or phrases are prohibited or rather, more appropriately, if only certain words and/or phrases are permitted.
Yeah, but I need to work on accuracy with my weapon and this way I can get the same feel, same sights etc. without having to waste ammo.
NZ had a general election in 2020. The results are available in the link below:

Nothing better than have a young woman as leader.
She obviously is doing okay by the New Zealand populace.

And here is the “second round” (actually I’ve lost count as to what round this is" of proposed gun legislation from the newly empowered libs:

westaussie:Jacinda Ardern’s Labour Party government was overwhelmingly returned at their last general election winning 65 seats; the first time a single party had won enough seats to govern alone with their current electoral system. Kiwis supported the actions of the Labour Party government.
Oh…my gosh! Looky who’s here?
Yes…heaven forfend that someone who actually lives in the region under discussion shows up to talk about it.
altair1013: Liberty323:I’ve already stopped target shooting, at least until ammo availability goes up. I’m saving my rounds for what I have guns for.
Blame your fellow conservative hoarders who think they need 20,000 rounds and nobody else needs any. Just like toilet paper. There is enough for everybody of people don’t hoard.
If only it were that simple. Gun sales have been way up over the last 10-15 years, many sold to first time gun owners. Women in particular have been buying guns. Every one of those guns puts higher demand on the availability of ammo. Most of us who have possessed guns most of our lives have amassed a stash of ammo to go with them, and many of us reload. I’m sure a few “gun nuts” are out there snatching up ammo when they find it, but most of the demand is by the new guys and gals.
My father in law taught me to reload and I’m learning how to cast my own bullets.
altair1013: Samm:"New Zealand’s beleaguered gun owners are bracing for a second round of gun confiscations following a raft of new gun control measures enacted last summer that are set to take effect on February 1. Kiwi shooters will have until August 1 to turn over their prohibited items or face severe criminal penalties.
Well they did vote for this crap.
Did they? The person they voted for was elected before she implemented the first round of confiscation and there has been no new election since then.
They don’t vote person…they vote party.
And the gun law tightening started under the previous PM, who was a member of the same party.
They don’t vote person…they vote party

Is ridiculous. Age and gender are no basis for determining leadership capability.
There is a lot better than “having a young woman as a leader.” Almost everything is better.

They were real quick to flip over and show their bellies during the pandemic. This doesn’t surprise me.
Big dummies with their 2 cases and zero deaths a day. What jerks.

Change “a” to “this”
My bad.

Laugh if you wish but I know NZ has a parliamentary system of govt.
And the party picks the leader.

Hey look, if you have no problem being a puppet, have at it. I make sure my dog is well fed and healthy too. Some people don’t mind a leash. I’m ok with that. It just won’t be me.

New zealand has zero covid restrictions, and a completely open economy and society, save international travel.
Meanwhile, another of my clients lost a parent to covid, and I can’t go to the bar after work tonight.
They sure are dummies over there.

This idea that temporary measures in an emergency become permenent losses of freedom and should be fought at all costs, even to the detriment of one’s health and the economic health of the country, is a defining feature of Americanism today and a main reason why we suck at emergencies requiring a nationally coordinated response.
Do we still have rationing in the US? Do we still have a draft? Do we still have alien and sedition acts?
Defending freedoms is a good thing. Being fanatically individualistic in all aspects at all times does not lend itself to a higher quality of life for the individual.
I’m sure I’ll be called a sheeple or “rolling over and baring my belly” for such a belief.
