It's been a minute, so why not have a laugh at the pathetic lefty government in New Zealand?
Kash Patel, the FBI director, traveled to New Zealand to open a security office in Wellington. At this event, he gifted security officials some 3D-printed replica handguns which were completely inoperable.
Essentially a decorative piece.
The New Zealand officials had to destroy the fake guns because even fake guns are banned in New Zealand.
From Newsweek:
During a series of meetings with New Zealand's top security officials on July 31, FBI Director Kash Patel reportedly presented three 3D-printed replica pistols mounted on display stands as gifts.
Recipients included Police Commissioner Richard Chambers, Andrew Hampton, director-general of the New Zealand Security Intelligence Service, and Andrew Clark, director-general of the Government Communications Security Bureau, according to reporting by The Guardian.
Yes, even national security officials in New Zealand are not allowed to own a handgun. Even if it's fake.
After receiving the gifts, the officials immediately sought legal advice to determine compliance with New Zealand law. Police firearm regulators examined the items and determined they could potentially be rendered functional, demanding their surrender and subsequent destruction, The Guardian reported. New Zealand Police Commissioner Richard Chambers confirmed this course of action occurred according to standard legal procedure.
That'll stop all of the bad guys with guns for sure! New Zealand is such a joke now.
Richard Chambers, New Zealand Police Commissioner, confirmed the compliance review and outcome, according to a report from The Guardian: 'To ensure compliance with firearms laws, I instructed police to retain and destroy them.'

They didn’t HAVE to destroy the fake guns.
They CHOSE to.
How did NZ get taken over by this pack of leftist loonies?
Beautiful country.
Very nice people.
Ugly, evil, socialist, Marxist government.
New Zealanders’ future is to learn to speak, read and write Mandarin, so they can properly service their masters.
Infiltration.
Same way other countries have.
Have you heard South Korea is now controlled by an open borders commie who is jailing Christian pastors and persecuting Christians? This is a very recent development.
The article is missing a critical piece of information without which, is a waste of time reading.
The left is a nation killing pathogen and it seems no country is immune.
It’s worse than cancer.
More like chronic brain wasting disease.
And what, pray tell, is that missing critical piece of information?
Bingo!
Like savages throwing spears at helicopters.
Rendered functional? 3D plastic facsimiles with no internal parts rendered functional? By whom and how?
A NZ face-slap to the USA.
Where’s the pic?
Ahhh ... yes.
We need some “fake gun pr0n” ... the only picture at the source is a composite of Kash Patel’s face and some weird structure out of Grade-B SciFi ...
In De Ice!
Well, yeah. The original AP story only broke to cast shade on Kash Patel. It spoke in such serious and dreadful tones, that you'd think Kash left suitcase nukes as a souvenirs to the officials. He would have done better to leave commemorative 3D printed balls to a country that won't let it's security officials have fake guns.
I doubt reading or speaking will be necessary for the "service" they'll be providing.
