I had a look at the regs but cant find the bit about not being able to alter your gun in the field, all i saw was not altering it without dismantling your gunQuote:

The fact i can pop my mag plug out in a min is also a no brainer, but still i'd rather play by the rules and be thankful a perminate pin wasn't required.
Spent the late arvo at the big pond again. One more swan for the pot. Managed to call a mallard in to land among the decoys which is a first. My mate bagged that and a swan.
What sort of call you using ? Sounds like you need an up-grade .Quote:

A high achiever like you has to expect the odd lack of success Dundee
Since opening week i havent shot one mallard. I have seen heaps but they are flyn straight over not even having a look. BASTARDS!!!!! Cows got to grazing today so im gunna start some recon to see where they all are.
Try looking in the neighbors place ,probably the paddock the cows have just come out of be a good place to start.
I haven't missed a night yet but 4 days away from the big pond still no results tonight

Stalked a pond we have in Te Aroha on a mates farm last night. About 20 ducks on it. Shot these two as they all took off then realised there were only hens couldn't see a drake so laid off the rest.
Ones of the boys got one as well also a hen. One of these leg banded be interesting to see where she,s been. Good eating a little down on condition these two but the other hen
was massive. A few came back but all hens and it got dark pretty quick under the hill. Good quick little stalk worked out OK.
