New Zealand’s gun lobby has promised to launch court action against firearm law reform.
The Council of Licensed Firearm Owners (Colfo) has informed its members it will challenge changes to gun law and a Government buyback of semi-automatics, which came after the March 15 terror attack.
Firearm owners are being asked to support and donate to a court challenge expected to cost “hundreds of thousands”.
Colfo lobbies Government and police on behalf of its member organisations, which include the Sporting Shooters Association, Pistol New Zealand and New Zealand Deerstalkers Association.
