Yes, sounds like a perfect opportunity to realign their focus
Reliable people are very valuable in todays business world

having worked in retail...and a sports department its a double edged sword for staff.... if they dont approach customers SOME bosses give gip as feel they arent doing the job..... hovering is almost worse....
trying to look busy for the boss...and be close by but not intruding for customers is a fine balancing act that isnt always easy...and then you get days when you are absolutely swamped with customers and a lady asks you what is the difference between a 4 and a 6 ball petonk set!!!! and you have to stand and read the instructions to try and figgure it out and she still makes formal complaint..... hard to win.
Their must be some on here who will know the difference between a 4 and 6 ball set.
It isn't new but it's a cool photo. Chammy don't like it

A couple of single shot Hornets. Not really my thing to post gun porn, but these 2 are coming along nicely. I had both these out today, fitting up a few parts and getting ready for a sight in and shoot.

Nice.
I used to have two left handed BARs - I still miss them.
I wonder if I will get the chance to own one again.......
Yeah mate ,it is,very smooth and a delight to shoot….. the scope…a mate uses the same scope out to a 1000yds!!??…. I’m a little skeptical about that…… reckon I’ll have to take a crack at that,but in 243…. Not sure about that….. thoughts on that??
Talked to a few people reckon it’s very capable out to 1000yds…with factory grain ammo…
Well appreciate that!..thanks!…. I’m sure you would actually take a liking to it….
Like you ( maybe)… my first rifle (a 303)was out of a wooden barrel, in a gun store on Cuba street ,Wellington ,back in 1970….i appreciate the old and the new,…. Not many of the old I dislike,a lot of the new,depends on what it’s being used for….
The BAR selection has a history and a reputation,I have 5 of them… one they don’t make anymore….
The rifle was $1280 USD…. The scope $480(with rings included) USD…. I’ve only just sighted it in… but it’s very stable,low recoil, has a great feel to it… and the semi-auto action is very clean and crisp….i believe I will really enjoy this calibre
Quote @Tahr: Maybe it's because now that we cant have them I want one.
I’m not sure about that….. first time I ever shot one I knew I wanted one…. Amazing how quickly you can get several shots off on game
I’m sure you have rifles,tried and true,.that do the job without any issues… no reason to knock what you have and know…..
One semi-auto in your collection would be a fine addition!!!
Two new barrels showed up today, for the Blaser K95,
243 and 5.6x50R, Ordered the .243 Nov 2022, 5.6x50R in Feb 2023,
only got one Spare Blaser QR mount, about to order a 2nd, but appears Rusan scope mount for the 7x64, (120gr's) fits the .243 barrel, pretty much perfect.
picture didn't embed,
Two new barrels for the K95, .243 and 5.6x50R, setting up a scope, Z3 as i type this, and trying to decide, if i want to venture out side, to sight in in as -25 right now,

7mm 375 Ruger. Purchased second hand but pretty sure was built originally by Terminator Products NZ, shoots super nice, came with a Zeiss Conquest Scope which unfortunately doesn't dial as far as i would like to do some long range shooting so in the market for a new scope.
Both ladies, dressed in their new frocks for the year. #manners

Looks great @AdamAnt
Who did the coating? What’s the colour?
@southernman , curious what you paid over there for the extra barrels ?
.22 hornet and .243. Ordered Nov 2022, $2100. Each.
5.6x50R. Ordered March 2023. $2600.
Like a fool, i watched a couple barrel for a bit .257 wby octagon barrel was $2600 late 2022, 270 win std was 1800 late 2022.
Cad has dropped 15 cents in last few years, so everything is much more.
I priced a barrel from NZ couple yeras ago 3600 NZD.
Currently overseas, but now got this waiting for my return. So I only get to look at the pics and salivate. Hardy 300 PRC, topping it off with a ZEISS Victory V8 4.8-35×60 in some Spuhr mounts. Retirement present…Attachment 246649Attachment 246650
