    Be safe out there this Easter

    I'm sick of work so heading home for Easter weekend. I wish I wasn't forced to hunt tomorrow but due to time restraints and compromises with the boss that shall be obeyed i'll take what I can.

    Be safe out there guys, hi vis up (if that's what you do), try not to sound to much like a deer and don't bloody shoot anyone!!!


    The Firearms Safety Code: Seven basic rules of safe firearms handling.

    1. Treat every firearm as loaded
    • Check every firearm yourself.
    • Pass or accept only an open or unloaded firearm.

    2. Always point firearms in a safe direction
    • Loaded or unloaded, always point the muzzle in a safe direction.

    3. Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    • Load the magazine only when you reach your shooting area.
    • Load the chamber only when ready to shoot.
    • Completely unload before leaving the shooting area.

    4. Identify your target beyond all doubt
    • Movement, colour, sound and shape can all deceive you.
    • Assume colour, shape, sound, and shape to be human until proven otherwise.

    5. Check your firing zone
    • Think! What may happen if you miss your target? What might you hit between you and the target or beyond?
    • Do not fire when you know others are in your firing zone.

    6. Store firearms and ammunition safely
    • When not in use, lock away the bolt, firearm and ammunition separately.
    • Never leave firearms in a vehicle that is unattended.

    7. Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
    • Good judgement is the key to safe use of firearms.

    How the hell is that your deer Nibblet? I can't see your name on it.
    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
