Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said on Saturday gun laws would change in the wake of Friday's shootings, and Ford said: "We're closely following the Prime Minister's statements about gun control. We're committed to reviewing the Government's approach and acting speedily regarding any specific changes to NZ firearms law that the Government makes clear." TradeMe did not allow the sale of military-style semi-automatic (MSSA) weapons, but under New Zealand gun laws an AR15 is not a MSSA unless it has one of five features. The weapon-sale industry could face a more-restricted future, if the prime minister carries through with gun control law reform. THE WEAPONS TRADEME WON'T SELL:* Knives, or weapons incorporating blades which are designed to be thrown such as throwing knives, ninja stars, or throwing axes.
