    Did you knock a few over when you came across them?
    Yeah boss.

    We managed 10 or so as there were three shooters with decent aim.

    A representative 3 from the 24 I got this evening. Over 200 of this patch this week. Apparently the virus will go out right in the middle of my two rabbitting properties very soon :-(

    it must be just me . . . . when i see Arnold Schwarzenegger style humour about killing i consider it juvenile and something that tarnishes all shooters as a group.

    its a serious business the taking of life that should be done with respect . . . but whatever, if you think its funny or should be encouraged then go for it, just don't be surprised when the nonshooting public has a low opinion of shooters.
    without a picture . .. it never happened !

    I am surprised that a man of your considerable elevation didn't just reach up and bop it with ya fist Stretch.

    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

    Strange that they are skinny ah with all those bunnies about.

    Reckon they might be a bit skinnier once that virus gets released.

    Bloody shame they not releasing a wild cat virus !!
