Interesting, I am glad I got my "conditional permit" online a month or so ago. I head to Christchurch in about 3 weeks.

You might want to contact someone to make sure they will honor the license you have.
 
For anyone heading to New Zealand on a hunting trip in the near future, it looks as though the police have temporarily stopped issuing permits. https://www.police.govt.nz/advice/firearms-and-safety/visitors-firearms-licence-and-import-permits
No this is not correct. The new system has been in place for some time now, on-line payment is coming from around late April. The major change is you now have to have a permit to carry ammunition into the country. As we don`t traditionally use military style semi automatic rifles for hunting most will not be affected. I have heard rumours about this including shotguns and standard semi automatic rifles and rim fire, I wouldn't`t be surprised if these are true with the current government but its to early to say and rumours are just that. It`s business as usual just make sure you have a confirmation of your permit, and don`t try and do it at the airport on arrival.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
