@308 I haven't been able to afford his stuff although I may have a swazi jacket I bought 2nd hand off a mate many years ago.
Wouldn't now if I could help it.
He just needed to keep his fat trap shut. He could've said it was a tragedy and things need to be looked at etc but no. Had to big note himself and throw everyone under the bus. Even semi 22s weren't so flash. Lucky he didn't shit on shotguns. By his reasoning unless we were using single shot 303's and 22's we just aren't doing it right.
Fair enough-people are allowed their opinion but that was just bollocks.
And as for being scared about people with semis, that's pretty crap too. There are dodgy people out there with bolt action-he is stereotyping them.
I have had experience with a person on a Stewart island trip in the early 90's. I had a 243 woods master semi auto. I was told he didn't like them and wouldn't hunt with me. I thought that was a bit rough as I hunted with semi shotguns and didn't see the difference. They are either loaded or they aint but treat them as such.
Also if hunting in a pair the first guy is the only one with ammo anywhere near the chamber. Guy following is just there for the ride so what does having a semi auto matter?
You either trust me to have it unloaded or you don't. Brought up around the bolt action ethos and that was it. We still got on alright but I still thought it was naïve.
