    The event is in Kurow, right?

    Slowly learning the geography/locations of the major cities.

    Sure you could. Just get a connecting flight to Christchurch or Dunedin and you'd be fine. I am sure someone could sort a ride from there.
    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

    I think he's planning on coming a bit earlier and we're renting a car and driving down. So might be already sorted.

    Update:

    Should be arriving on Sunday, 11/4/2018. Gives me some time to settle in and not have to rush down to Kurow.

    Appreciate all the offers though..

    You guys are a kind bunch. Definitely a different vibe than here in Vegas.

    Mate I'll play the cheeky Kiwi that say it's too late to come in April. I suspect you mean you will arrive on Sunday 4/11/2018.

    Just seen this, im dead keen. Will only have a 223AR but there always needs to be a comedy option.

    skimmed through thread and saw people offering rides to the event, ill be able to do seats from Queenstown to Kurow and back.
