    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

    Only North of the Hunua Range Munsey. Once you go South of the Bombay, Pokeno line it becomes more like pineapple lumps. Ha ha ha ha

    Thanks for sharing & the pics Neckshot. A great time had by all I reckon. Hope you weren't looking for game like the one hanging on the wall in picture 1 in the local bush .---Not many caribou around Kawekas these days. Hahaha.
    Good stuff.

    Great write up, enjoyed it. Sneaky little sods, just like their namesake were in WWII.

    I didn't realise you had been chasing japs around Borneo in dubya dubya two. You have held you age really well.

    That's okay Rushy, I'm no spring chicken admittedly. Just finished reading "With the Old Breed at Peleliu and Okinawa" written by an ex Marine mortarman, Eugene Sledge. Poor bastards that survived those battles, mentally fucked for life. Their enemy had some of the attributes of our esteemed Sika including incredible bravery.

    Yes, I guess it is all to easy to forget that brave and heroic acts by soldiers are not just confined to our own forces but are also to be found in the opposing forces as well. We are pretty much the same age. You are about six months older than I am.
