Original Message Some shotguns were also banned.

More than 2,000 people have surrendered 3,275 guns and 7,827 parts, and in return they been paid more than NZ$6m (£3.25m) to compensate them.

Gun owners have until December to hand back their weapons, with the government setting aside NZ$208m (£112m) to pay owners up to 95% of the original cost.

New Zealand police said they were pleased with the turnout of those handing back weapons on Sunday, after 684 people surrendered nearly 5,000 weapons and parts at events across the country.
