    If you do venture towards Melbourne, Mialls or Clayton firearms are generally pretty good

    Packenham firearms and alpine in morwell treat me well, not cheap cheap but nobody is these days.
    They are also friendly which is not a known trait of Australians.

    That's great.
    Hunt safe, look after the bush & plug more pests. The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.
