Poll: Do you support the opening of a new Gun City mega store in Sockburn?

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

Gun City owner David Tipple is defending his new Christchurch mega store against community backlash, saying the business is a "legitimate activity".

The new Sockburn store will open on Main South Rd in the first week of August.

The company was granted resource consent for the new store on a non-notified basis in January.
