Please share and start talking to anyone you know with Fi****ms licences, interest in using fi****ms or training before applying for their licence. This bill is the clarification of laws we have all been lobbying for and trying to get across the line. There is much you can comment on in a submission from your own point of view so please take the time to submit on this once in a lifetime opportunity to get law put in place that is understandable, reasonable and effective in making sure the public is kept safe and you can continue in your sport. Anyone with questions or that wants to get some one on one time to discuss parts of this or needs assistance with writing a submission please get in touch. Lets make 2026 a watershed year for fi****ms law in New Zealand.

The COLFO Arms Bill Consultation Guide is now available. This is designed for the everyday hunter and shooter in mind to help you craft a comprehensive submission. Just copy the text, add your own personal experience and ideas, customise it, and send it in.

It can be completed in less than 10 minutes. This consultation will affect the future or all shooting sports in NZ so all of us need to contribute to ensure fair and effective laws are put into place.

The road to 100,000 submissions from licensed firearm owners starts today.

Share with all your firearm using mates and give this a thoroigh going over. The last Arms Act lasted for 42 years, make sure what is in this bill is workable for the future.

Few words from Roy. Lots of us have hunted the Wapiti and fiordland. Some of us have even sneaked after the wily Sika. Have your say, time is running out and better management of deer will end up being a lost opportunity without your support!
