    Blaser Owner in or near Auckland

    Afternoon All

    Is there some kind and generous R8 owner in or around the Auckland that would allow me to have a first hand look at an R8 (ideally left hand).
    I can swap a goat hunt it that catches your fancy.

    That will NEVER happen
    If I wasn't so busy I'd send you mine, surely there must be someone closer?
    edit: do you realise you'll never be happy with any other gun after playing with a R8?

    Much like beer and Waikato then.
    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

    See! You're already coming down with something.
    Seems like your complete lack of taste is one of the symptoms.😂

    You mean once you try beer you'll never want to drink Waikato again? Sounds about right.

    Eventually he will do.................and eventually he will sell to me...........

    Failing that I have been considering having a clean out of the safe but like you really need to have a fiddle with one first hand before shelling out that kind of coin.

    I wish it was that easy, I only own one scope, nzpost currently owns one of my Sightrons after fucking it in the mail, leaving me only with my S&B.
