Most semi-auto rifles are banned, "high capacity" magazines are banned(over 7 rounds), and pepper spray is illegal!!! Shotguns holding more than 5 rounds, banned.
The person carrying, using, or discharging the weapon is obliged to prove the purpose was lawful, proper, and sufficient. This requirement applies even if the person can legally possess the weapon.
So you have to beg permission to own a gun and constantly live in fear that you won't be able to justify continuing ownership of the gun.
Hunting game, pest control and agricultural uses, sports, collection, and theatrics are all normally acceptable purposes but personal protection and self-defence are not.
SELF DEFENSE IS NOT A VALID REASON FOR OWNING A GUN IN NZ!!
Firearms licences are issued for 10 years, but can be revoked at any time if police believe the person is no longer fit and proper to possess a firearm.
So NZ is basically an open air prison where your "rights" are barley existent and can be revoked at the drop of a hat as your jailers see fit.

This is the way. I would get a 3D printer and/or a tabletop CNC machine. Tormach makes a tabletop CNC for $3,500 that will cut metal.
They are almost identical to Australia's gun laws and are just stupid.
