    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Haven't got a trade, went to college studied automobile and transport technology, no bloody work using that!! Pity, I'd come back to nz in a flash!

    The gun laws here are a bit obscure, you must have a separate license for each rifle/gun. To have a mod, you must apply, sometimes you may get granted the license for the rifle and not the moderator!!

    We also have limits on ammo purchasing I.e for my .17 I can only hold 60 rounds in my possession. The balls about that is you can't buy in bulk, which means I'm paying 30/35/40 euro a box! However the silly thing about it is that you can take your license to a gun store, buy your limit of ammo, go to the next store and do the same!!

    Reloading is also banned, this IMO is a direct result of the troubles!

    The Leprachaun's come out after midnight and put a fourth leaf on all Shamrock's making them just as lucky as Clover but the spell wears off when a non believer approaches.
