Firearms buy-back events are happening in Murupara and Tauranga over the next two weekends.
Police are encouraging all prohibited firearm owners to get down to a collection event before it is too late.
The firearms amnesty and buy-back ends on December 20.
There will be no compensation after that date for those handing in their illegal firearm or part for buy-back, and possessing the prohibited firearm will become an offence.
The Murupara buy-back event is at the Murupara Sports Pavilion Hall at 48 Pine Drive on Friday September 20 and Saturday September 21 from 9am to 12pm.
