Well, rather impressed with minister Bennet. Smart lady and down to earth.
Didn't get a chance for a grope though.... and the guys with with earpieces and ill fitting suit jackets were everywhere.....
She should be entertaining at the opening.
Please excuse spelling, as finger speed is sometimes behind brain spped........ Or maybe the other wayy.....
Auckland could do with a couple more of these facilities. Great forward thinking from the Raymond.
With APC situation pistol shooting would have taken a big step back in this country.
Hopefully this will move forward shooting in general with more participation, safety in numbers in a democracy.
Good on Paula Bennett for doing opening. I don't think you would find many politicians game to be seen opening a gun range for fear of offending the PC numptie brigade! Respect
The Auckland shooting club will be at the Auckland high court on monday at 10am. The hearing is scheduled for two days for the vissapana meditation centre vs auckland city council and auckland shooting club.
You are welcome to pop in and listen if you have some time. It could be entertaining, I know there are a couple interesting things they hope will bring an end to the club. If you do, make sure you show firearms users in good light
Disappointing.
I'm sure the tax revenue from ASC would far exceed that of that of the "meditation" venue.
Disappointing for sure. To put it in to perspective, it's an annoyance and should not have an operational impact on the club. The legal costs are not welcome. The motions have to be done to come out the other end but for anyone that was unaware and has joined or was thinking of joining then I can reassure you will be shooting on time as expected
I would agree with the previous posters on how dissatisfying this has become,and as MaW has pointed out,hunters,shooters etc must show themselves in a good light,nothing worse than treading on ones pecker,making for a poor show.
What's surprises me about these clowns that want to ban,stop,eradicate the activities of hunters,shooters and gun enthusiasts,is that the "opposition" don't seem to realize that our quest to maintain our activities,grows much stronger with their push.Whenever a Govt,or entity ban certain activities,regardless of what they are,the BLACK Market pioneers will make it happen to satisfy the need.
When you(try)ban a range(s)or put constraints that are unacceptable,people will take matters into their own hands and create ranges that have no accountability or control.I have no connection with ASC,but I hesitate to guess that will eventually get their way,as a shooting range can only be considered a great way to train,educate and "control" what others see as a threat,I wish them well.
Did you invite the DPS staff to have a shoot? I don't think their holsters would comply with club/PNZ rules.
I'll see you on the 25th as well.
Went out and did my induction this morning. I don't have anything to compare it too being a novice but it looks like the facility is going to be great. Seemed like a friendly bunch of people too. For mid week there was quite a few there. Looking forward to the wheather drying up!
OK so I was inducted today so she is all go. When are we having the first NZHS blast together?
