Photo / NZ PoliceA 3D-printed gun has been found by police after a raid on a West Auckland property, in what is believed to be the first seizure of its kind. Police in New Zealand have previously said that anyone in possession of a 3D-printed firearm in New Zealand could be prosecuted. In addition, semiautomatic weapons such as the one recovered in West Auckland are banned under the sweeping gun law changes enacted after the devastating 2019 Christchurch mosque attacks.
