A 13-year-old Waikato girl has sent an open letter to the Prime Minister criticising the government's decision to ban rifles she used for sport shooting. Maddy Millen-Turner says she competed in three gun and multi gunning events with an AR15 rifle that was purchased for her 13th birthday. She shoots under her father, Matt Turner's firearms licence. Matt Turner told Ben Strang his daughter, like many in the gun community, can't understand the government's new laws.
