New Zealand begins first round of gun buybacks after Christchurch mosque attack committed by a Jow Forums user.
>Government has set aside more than NZ$200m to remove military-style firearms from circulation >Dozens of Christchurch gun owners have handed over their weapons in exchange for cash in the first of more than 250 planned buyback events around New Zealand after the government outlawed many types of semi-automatics.
>Police said they paid more than $NZ200,000 in total to 68 gun owners in the first few hours of the event held on Saturday.
>In April, New Zealand lawmakers rushed through new legislation to ban military-style weapons after 51 people were killed at two Christchurch mosques on 15 March.
This shit reminds me of just how good we have it in America. We get like 7ish different mass shooting and not a whole lot changes. New Zealand only has one shooting and it's instant gun confiscation time.
>why doesnt the anti gun government sell arms instead of destroying them? You're a new kind of stupid
Blake Martinez
but god damn do they try. however america is still unique in that a lot of gun owners simply wouldn't turn stuff in and there's no way to know who did and didn't.
this is why a gun registry should never be allowed to be discussed openly, but you'll find a lot of people think that's "common sense" on the internet.
Andrew Powell
Americans cant even begin to comprehend unless they've lived overseas. Euros (and by extension NZ) who own guns dont even have a big bad racist NRA, they've got literally no representation that the public knows or cares about. When you're a tiny faggot country that's faced no hardship in living memory then, everything is like the sky is falling so its easy for lawmakers to push hysterical shit through after one isolated event. I remember after the shooting talking to people over there who said "nothing will happen, because we're a country of hunters" which was total delusion because 95% of NZs recreation hunters/shooters are in the deep rural south while 95% of the population are in the big cities and have never seen trees or shot a gun. It feels good to be free, but its bittersweet when stuff like this is going on elsewhere.

Wyatt Lewis
this post hits me. sometimes i wish we'd just have an international economic depression the likes of which we've never seen so everyone hardens up a bit. maybe so the zoomer generation becomes the generation that fattens up their kids by telling them to eat every scrap of food because you don't know when it won't be there. and how they throw almost nothing away because to them it might be useful later. their garden watering can they bought 40 years ago and have just shoddily repaired it ever since, patching holes with tape or shitty welds.
i think we'll see some strife in our lifetimes that hardens people back up but idk when. :( i don't even ask for a boogaloo, just some tough love from the man upstairs for society.
I'd love to live in buttfuck New Zealand somewhere on the coast hunting elk, fishing, and living in a smol little cinderblock cabin. Only issue would be stable stream of ammo since I like to shoot.
Cameron Bailey
High power pneumatic guns. Set up a large compressor (which you'd want anyway for tools) and plink away.
Hunter Diaz
this is a happy pic but what is the source?
Ayden Morris
the american left (and right) just wants people scared and angry so their easier to control. the left in NZ actually just wants to save lives
Landon Sullivan
Liberal Party of Canada's own firearms consultation. They were wishy-washy about announcing any policy until the results were in. Once it was released, as you can tell, it didn't exactly demonstrate a willingness to go down the prohibition path again. Old women in Toronto can't dictate the laws for the entire country. The LPC then started parroting some poll from Nanos or some shit instead. A rumour started right around this time that they were planning on banning the AR-15 by name, which then led to every single AR-15 in Canada under 2000 CAD to sell out immediately. Gun stores were importing more and more from the US and the shipments would be sold out before they even landed in-country. We've most likely passed 100k AR's in a population the size of California.
Nah, Ive seen their tax policies, they just want to keep everyone poor and voting labor. If you earn more than 70k (equivalent to ~45k usd) you get taxed 35% which is the same an American earning 200k usd would be taxed.
Elijah Hill
I know this is a meme but >anti-coal >bad thing Nuclear or gtfo.
Noah Ross
Yeah, that kind of happens when a country is so peaceful that a single shooting more than doubles the murder rate for that year. It's just like how the US over reacted after 9/11.
Kevin Young
That's because your mass shootings are all organized by the government.
Colton Smith
>Dozens Dozens! Literally dozens!
Adam Jones
>the left in NZ actually just wants to save lives Imagine being this pozzed
>Set up a large compressor (which you'd want anyway for tools) I am not aware of any compressor that does both of these things well. I have separate compressors for each. My airgun charges to 3,000 PSI. My compressor for my tools only goes to 140 PSI.
total for the day was 169 people handing over 224 firearms and 217 prohibited parts with a pay out value of $433,000. Wouldn't surprise me if at least half the firearms were shotguns or old tube mag 22s which exceed the new mag limits
>the left in NZ actually just wants to save lives haha, no its virtue signalling bs by a prime minister who wants a UN job. The left doesnt want to save lives here, it wants to control them
I fucking hate this shitty country so fucking much. All these innocent guns being needlessly slaughtered all because the schlomos promised Jacinda an overpayed as fuck job at the U.N if she did this, and because most gun owners are faggot boomers who are too cucked to do anything about it. All I've wanted was to be able to shoot guns in peace, but apparently that's too much to ask from our fucking piece of shit government. I can't even move to the US because I'm not a spic with 28 kids so I'd never get a green card. It's all just so tiresome, anons. Fuck this country.
Why is commie QC so gun-friendly? Do they just want guns so they can secede from Canada, or something?
Dominic Green
If only they'd started the buybacks sooner. I'm sure the guy would've given all his weapons to the government if they'd only asked politely.
Adrian Cox
>PSAshitters forcing actual decent manufacturers to lower their prices and me picking up all these $600-$900 extremely well made AR15s from great manufacturers like there's no tomorrow
I heard the Norincos were pretty damn good copies.
Cameron Campbell
>7ish Kek, dude, we're literally at like 20 major shootings at this point. The kikes have lost all abilities to take guns with their false flags and now all they can do is try to keep pro-gun shit from passing, which will eventually fail too.
William Edwards
They are, they use all the exact tooling the US gave to the Koreans which then sold the tooling to China. Good quality for the price point. Keep in mind these are like $300USD rifles, so not like your flushing $1000+ for an M1A
Noah Cruz
i want marceline to step on me
Isaiah Russell
I have 2 m305s, they are unironically great. couple inch groups at 100m out of the box, easy. ymmv, quality control is chinese. >mfw my raifu are now prohibited
i had one too, rescued from a shitty archangel stock. Fantastic rifle for the money. Unfortunately yes, now prohibited. I sold mine last year, sucks I wont be able to own anymore. Had a SL8 on the wishlist and was looking at importing a PTR/HK but lol thats not happening... RIP
Jose Kelly
the jokes on them, i'm swapping out my .308s for a .30-06, and pistols
Ryder Lopez
Just don't surrender them.
Noah Howard
And then what? Never use them, or get pozzed by the big blue dick of the law? Can't take them to a range, can't use them in competitions, can't take photos, can't be seen carrying them in the bush or on the farm. I'm not gonna keep it illegally just to let it rust away in hiding on the off chance 'ze chermans' arrive.
Robert Sanders
this is exactly the fucking problem. normal, sane people like you are getting royally fucked, and the psycho nutbars, meth heads, and gangbangers aren't going to hand in fuck all.
Principle. Only 20% of aussies handed theirs in. Don't be a cuck.
Robert Allen
I was also looking at getting an SL8 as my first non-fudd raifu. It fucking hurts.
Liam Morgan
You’ve achieved a new level of limp cuck
Caleb Rivera
Considering we have 1/10th the population of the US? Yeah, kinda. Especially since you can't even legally go innawoods with them. Don't confuse a people with their government.
Lucas Martin
What a world, where nations under attack hurry to make it easier on the attacker.
Logan Perez
Oh well. Next time New Zealand is under attack the rest of the world won't have to come and help. We can just tell them that those who are unwilling to defend themselves, should not expect others to come to their aid.
Sebastian Cox
It's almost like anyone could go attack NZ with a weapon they got from anywhere, and NZ would only continue to make it easier to repeat, it's a win win.
Caleb Walker

And yet they destroyed the surplus FR-F2's and now the odds of me every getting one approach zero. Fuck the French government.
Aaron Moore
ever*
Nicholas Harris
Yeah, agreed, fuck 'em. >mfw i'll never be able to shoot a FAMAS because shit laws and muh globalism
>France doesn't even realize the sheer amount of negative PR they get from not selling their surplus to hongry Jow Forumsommandos just one little ocean over.
They probably tout how great they are not selling their old guns, but the reality is almost definitely, they go in a pile when they're "used up" in whatever place they've made it to, get a light dousing of diesel, a match, and slight fire damage,- free guns to habeeb and pals if they replace the plastic furnature.
Blake Williams
68 out of an anticipated 14,000 subject weapons. Likely at least 60 more that they would manage with the same effort in the US with millions of similar weapons.
Blake Clark
Not only that but rednecks would literally be shooting police at the gun turn-in station.
Christopher Murphy
What if someone decides to shoot one of these places up?
Asher Peterson
Not accurate. 90% of what are counted as "mass shootings' is nigger thugs playing out drug related gang wars.
Christopher Hill
$433K for 224 guns. That averages about $1,900 per gun. Less than retail for many in my collection. Never. Going. To. Happen!
Grayson Long
>fill a shitty shotgun barrel full of ANFO >set to when bent or thrown in the pile it fucking blows
Acts of war against the citizenry should be met with acts of war against the government that is supposed to also be the citizenry, that's how the US worked until about 90 years ago when the English joo took over with the Fed Reserve act.
If NZ is going to literally say "we are with Islam" then let them be, and dissociate from them folks, they've served their purpose but they're an old tool, time to pick up a new one - with a bill of rights.
Carson Moore
Only 46% of the world total weapons? Going to have to start work on this. Every gun owner needs to go out and purchase at least one new weapon this month, then one per quarter thereafter. We need the proverbial gun behind every blade of grass!
Jackson Powell
That article reads like a pure propaganda. This is some hardcore astroturfing, if I ever seen one. 1) Especially considering how much of an complete failure was their first try of convincing people to give their guns away. And 2) considering that the changes in NZ gun laws caused exactly the opposite - kiwis buying most guns in their history.
This. They call anytime more than 2 people are hit by a bullet in an altercation a mass shooting, which is common in gang warfare, where literally only gangbangers are killing eachother, and often, it's away from the suburbs(their own houses) in industrial areas where they hang out, except for when it isn't because even stupid gangsters know cops hang out in the neighborhoods, and you might do 25 for shooting with intent at another gangbanger, but death sentence for accidentally hitting someone else.
Vegas appeared to be an arms deal honeypot gone terribly wrong, someone probably was in 100 levels above their fucking head, lately all the schools that have been shot up, conveniently JUST when someone in the democrat party has some unsavory news come up about them, and always by some kid who's hearing voices and on an SSRI. Always fucking always, on an SSRI.
Brody Cook
Honestly the disarmament of Australia and now NZ is probably China getting them lubed up to just swarm them, suddenly and without any warning, as China is famous for.
They make fun of caucasians for being so oblivious to what's around them, they know that a culture that is unwilling to defend themselves, will cease to exist willfully, and Aus has a lot of delicious farmland and empty space, perfect for commie block housing and good for dumping half the population of gooks to cut the population density to an actually acceptable level.
Sebastian Brooks
Barely made the cut off to be a zoomer instead of a millenial (21 years old) my little sister and I got hit HARD by the recession in '08 because my mom worked for a massive insurance company and that's all she had experience in. Don't listen to the vocal minority, a lot of zoomers went through some shit and are distrustful of the gubmint
Angel Wood
just enlist in a basic bitch ass POG MOS and git ya citizenship, I know more than 20 dudes that did just that and half them hardly speak english.
Josiah Gutierrez
Stop complaining about other's inaction and do something then.
Make sure that whatever you do, you know it's the right thing, and do something so literally no one will be able to sway it any other way that you didn't intend it to be. >livestream it then faggit.
Mason Richardson
>but they're an old tool, That you shit on the goverment is fair enough, but how can you see New Zealand as written off when obviously most people are ignoring the buybacks.
Robert Brown
that 433k includes what they paid for prohibited parts so the average per gun is lower than 1900
>China getting them lubed up no doubt, our two major parties both get funding from chinese sources & are happy to sell us out for personal gain
It would of course massively raise public support for the police and for the disarming effort.
Oliver Anderson
>how can you see New Zealand as written off
I never said that. I said the NZ government is dangerously corrupt to the point that this very moment - is sink or swim, you either get rid of everyone in a seat, and start over completely, or your country and the people in it are GOING to go away in 100 years, because the setup is all there for a storm from a historical "this is how it happens every. single. time." perspective.

Yeah its total bs but thats to be expected of this government & police. The royal commission of inquiry into the shooting will be a whitewash as well
