Thread: Toby Memorial Shoot 2018 Auction

I have an Idea.
Some sort of bidding system/raffle? for how far I can throw my rifle off the line before shooting,and another for if i can hit a target 1st round afterward.
?

I don't want to hijack the thread here, but who is Toby? I'm deducing that he was a member on here who passed away? Thanks

How are we going with this?
I will buy a bottle of something for the auction as it is easier for plane travel getting it there.

@Beaker here it is. I have zero idea what the hell the rest of your pm meant

Morning chaps, 1 metre square gong ordered. AR450 so should handle the jandal ok. I'm based in Thorndon, 2 minutes from ferry terminal so someone can pick up on way past. Auction it off at the end if it's not swiss cheese.
Gibo, can you organise someone to pick up?

Mate you are a living legend! I will talk to the Welly lads today. Hopefully its ok.

Thanks again McNotty

No danger mate, glad I can help.
I've got a 300 x 300 AR500 10mm they can grab as well. Would be good one for 600-1000 yards, about the same size as kill zone on deer. Nothing but a 50 cal will hurt that at those ranges. Will chuck some rubber straps on it as well, nothing worse than shooting off a chain and having to go fix it.

Legend!

@McNotty the boys in Wellies can grab it. @kiwi39 is that man

Got these two pairs of Boots to donate
Can I have an address to send to - or if someone from Nelson or Blenheim going down will drop off next week

46 Euro Winter Talan (slight indent marking on leather of RH boot from transit)





44 Euro Talan Police (SBU) boot - I am still wearing same model as every time I get a 41 in the Mid Season infantry boots they are already committed to someone else
I find them good - thought heel may be not suited for bush - but this morning out in bush - very wet I might add and no problems.
But for some reason Black does not sell here

@Gibo what about doing some sort of postal/PM bid system so that people not coming can bid. Do something like PM their maximum bid to you then compare postal bid with bid from the floor. Might be able to raise a bit more money that way. Only issue would be getting items to winners.

I will put up a carbon fibre stock for a Howa Long Action Right Hand. At the moment it has a 0.5" pachmayr at 14" LOP and a heavy barrel channel, but these two things can be changed.

If someone down there wants to do that I'm all for it

@kiwi39 lick of paint and it’s all done. Can pick up next week if you want. PM and we can sort something out.
