Safeguard Your Licence
The Arms Act allows for your firearms license to be suspended or revoked without criminal charges or convictions. When it comes to licensing, you are not considered innocent until proven guilty. The Sentinel Tier equips you with immediate legal support to challenge these decisions.

Gain consultation with experts in firearm laws, document review, and funding for legal services up to NZD $2,500 per year. Our team has the experience required to provide you with swift intervention from expert lawyers protecting your right to own firearms legally and the best chance to get your license back.

Seamless Claims Process
Getting legal help is stressful so we made the process easy. Simply click the 'Make a Claim' button below, fill in the form within 5 days of your revocation notice, and our team will handle the rest. Approved claims connect you directly to legal experts so they can represent you quickly and efficiently.

Join for Peace of Mind
COLFO receives many complaints and concerns about suspensions and revocations. Many are overturned when challenged but we understand that many people cannot spare the thousands of dollars it takes to challenge unfair police or FSA actions. The Sentinel membership allows that peace of mind knowing you are not alone.
