Amnesty takes 200 illegal firearms 'off the street'
A firearms amnesty held alongside New Zealand's gun buyback scheme has quietly removed hundreds of illegal weapons from circulation.

Anybody, including non-licensees, can anonymously hand over any firearms during the amnesty period, which runs until December 20.
