Gun control advocates want more regulation on a firearm popular among gangs.

The 782 Alfa carbines and Alfa hunters look indistinguishable from a handgun once its barrel and stock are cut off.  

One hundred and 63 of them were imported and passed on to criminals from 2019-2021.  

Gun Control NZ Co-Founder Nick Green told Andrew Dickens there is no reason they should be legal.  

He says semi-automatic guns have been regulated, and the Alfa carbines should be no different.
