    Stubbies

    Alright time to downgrade my current #1s and get a new pair, pretty happy with Swazi Poley shorts but is there anything else thats decent out there? Must have pockets and ball room. The last CCC pair I had lasted 2 months before keys punched through pockets and I snapped the drawstring.

    Work issue Hard Yakka. I live in them all season,pretty much 10months. The only time they've failed is when something gets caught on pocket or up the leg. 2 minutes with the bag sewer and they're good to go again. Haven't managed to wear a pair out yet. I've got 4 pair and they've totalled 9 1/2 seasons so far

    They looked like anything in the pockets would be constricting to me.

    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
