No shooting glasses!  :o  Kids are great learners because they don't have a lifetime of prejudices and bad habits to overcome. Girls are lucky enough to have better coordination and fine muscle control than boys. She could even be an Olympic shooter some day.

Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

I realize this may be like asking me about Canadian or Mexican laws but do you have any idea what NZ gun laws are like ?

well here you go
Quote

from my mate
Military Style Semi Autos ( MSSA) are required to be registered, but all Sporting semi-auto rifles and shotguns are legal on an A cat license, Any handguns that are to be used in competion or club shooting are registered on a B cat license ( attendance requirements apply) , C cat is for collectors, whether it be pistol, or military collectible, but normally cannot be operated. D cat is dealer, E Cat is MSSA as above.

Any firearm that complies with A cat need not be registered, and it is the responsibility of the seller to ensure that the buyer has the correct A cat license.

Types of firearms licence

If you are 16 years or over and have or use a firearm (except under immediate supervision of a licence holder) you need a firearms licence.

A standard firearms licence allows you to have and use sporting type shotguns and rifles. You also need this licence if you are aged 16 and 17 years and wish to buy or use an airgun. Standard licences are valid for 10 years. A licence holder will require an endorsement to:

Own pistols (B endorsement)
Collect firearms, or stage theatrical performances involving firearms (C endorsement)
Own or possess military style semi-automatic rifles or shot guns (E endorsement)
A visitor's licence is for a person visiting New Zealand and is valid for 12 months, or when the person leaves (which ever is shorter). Applicants must show they are a bona fide shooter in their own country. People intending to stay in New Zealand for more than 12 months must apply for a standard licence.

A dealer's Licence is for arms dealers who buy, sell or make firearms by way of business. This licence is valid for one year. People who hire out firearms also require a licence.
