    Correct, obtained through the NZ Mountain Safety Council back in the day.

    Have received the rifle. Interesting. It is likely ex police. Has last 4 serial numbers engraved into the bolt in the same style as the ex police Brno's did.

    Through a real shitty Tasco 2-8 scope of the same vintage it shot 60 grn Norma loads into less than an inch.

    Four .223's now so have to work out which one goes to my second batch of grandsons that are getting keen.

    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.
