    SHOT EXPO NZ 23-24 Feb 2019 - COLFO and SSANZ pull out

    Found this article on the SSAA website, SHOOTING ASSOCIATIONS PULL OUT OF NEW ZEALAND SHOT EXPO 2019

    https://ssaa.org.au/members/member-a...shot-expo-2019

    Looked at both the COLFO and SSANZ websites for confirmation or reasons and none can be found.

    Anyone know more info or why?

    Heard about it ages ago ex Aussie, not sure exactly what the story is, a fair bit of "he said she said" carry on.

    Have paid my half of the Stall, Flights & motel booked so we are going to Auckland regardless...

    No doubt I will drop in and say gidday as I pass by.
    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

    That would give reason for all of us to go. We could all get right up in that bunny loving, tree hugging, trendy lefty, pinko’s stand and let him know that we don’t rate his opinion any more than we rate pond scum as a breakfast table spread.

    Maybe as an advocate for drinking pond scum you should consider not attending

    Tomorrow? I haven't alerted/warned the authorities yet.

    There are 2 ponds a couple kms before you enter Hoki from the north.
    I booked them for you to have a dip anytime tomorrow.
    Tastes just like Waikato I am told, so you will be in heaven.
