Gun Control Supporters
The principal flag-bearer for these interests in New Zealand has
been the lobby group Gunsafe, which was started by Mr Philip
Alpers, and is supported by groups with a particular concern
about violence within society. It says that its active membership
is “in the hundreds”, but it has a wider influence than those
numbers would suggest through its contacts with other antiviolence
groups. It has an association with similar groups
overseas, such as the National Coalition for Gun Control in
Australia, and the Coalition for Gun Control in Canada, which
were promoters of the recent reforms of gun control in their
respective countries.
