    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

    No, well they never used too. I cant open up the Customs link so cant check (Dial up speed -yipee). Parts are basically the bits that are needed to make a firearm go bang eg barrel,, trigger group, receiver, bolt etc. Add on equipment like mounts, scopes and stocks are/or were classed as accessories (in regards to "A" Cat rifles).

    Its a shame when the Govt restricts the law abiding more and more. But I guess its easier than tackling the crims and restricting the unlawful.

    Cheers.
