We've all read comments on forums from Aussie gun owners lamenting that Kiwis can access semi-autos and all sorts of goodies. In the last year I had a pretty rough time with work, being made redundant etc. When I saw a job advertised in NZ, I jumped at the chance.
Getting the firearms license was a bit of a pain, needing personal referees that I simply didn't have for a while (left the fiance in OZ for the first 9 months) and having to have storage inspected before I got the license, but I got there.
Now for the brag. First thing I stupidly bought was an air pistol. 8-shot .177. Can't penetrate a 2L bottle of L&P. No license required.
The Family (I have a Tikka .300 winmag not in pic, coz you've seen those before)
"suppressed" .177 Browning air-rifle, Ruger 10/22, Norinco SKS, actual-proper-suppressed single shot .410, and a VZ.58
It's pretty sweet here (for now)
