"Firearm collection event this weekend in Trentham "
This weekend there will be a prohibited firearm and part collection event on Saturday 5 October at the Trentham

If you can’t make a collection event, firearm holders also have the option of going to their local dealer to hand-in
firearms and parts.
Contact your local dealer to make a booking before you go.
Firearm owners can now also apply for compensation if they own a unique prohibited firearm, part or accessory.
Information on criteria, cost and how to apply is now available on the Police website.
You can also modify some prohibited firearms - Police’s website has information on modifications and a list of approved
gunsmiths.
