    New mai mai

    Me and my brother were bored so we spent sunday making a mai mai mainly for pigeons for when the paddock gets put into seed. Its in a all right place for a few ducks as well. Just got back from putting more camo on it might do some more as well later on.

    This was it before I added more camo

    here it is as I drive away.

    Looks cool Toby. It is good to see you are keeping busy
    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

    Toby even creatures with a brain the size of a pigeon will eventually work out that if they come to you paddock they will likely die
