turbo User ID: 47263593 United States 07/21/2019 11:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | NZ dollar is $.68 of US dollar. NZ$6m x .68%= $4,080,000 US dollars. $4,080,000 / 3,275 guns= 1,245.80 per turned in gun. I'll bet that the average value of the guns turned in is under $100 USD, probably more like $75 USD. So, NZ Government overpaid by at least 1,200%. LMAO! |

Quoting: Cartel™ 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. [link to news.sky.com (secure)] :drevil3: Ha ha ha ha They're doing what we did. Take the old shitty guns and parts in, get paid for the old pieces of crap, then go buy nice new ones.

LMAO! if you looked at NZ gun prices you'd realize they are on average ten times retail US prices. Yeah, the NZ dollar is 68% of US dollar, so that means they are approximately 2 to 5 times more expensive at equalized dollar value. |
