Welcome to the website of the New Zealand Council of Licensed Firearms Owners Inc (COLFO)

"COLFO exists to protect the rights and privileges of responsible New Zealand firearms owners and users.

To be effective we must be able applaud MPs, political parties, candidates and policies, but the Electoral Finance Act constricts that right. However, the upcoming election will be the 5th we have faced and we will continue to use all of the tools available to us to ensure that the rights of our members and supporters remain undiminished. We shall continue to criticise or applaud policies that are firearms related, and we shall continue to criticise or applaud individual MPs and parties on the basis of their policies"

I also encourage you to keep an eye on the COLFO web site over the coming weeks as we move into election mode. It is in development at this stage.

John Howat

Chairman NZ Council of Licensed Firearms Owners Inc.
