Just had a shoot mate.
I'll be keen to get up there some weekdays if that suits anyone else too?
I can very occasionally have a day off when it's quiet, but hard to predict. A couple of guys go on Wednesdays from about 11am, go have a chat. Big Lee if you know him, bloody good chapQuote:

Another reason for there to be a fuck me dead emoji. Mate I am still gonna take an assortment of firearms until I told differently by the club.
They will try every avalible tactic to get the range shut down no doupts about it. Hopefully everything has been thought of so nothing can go wrong.
They certainly are. And of course they can always depend on the mainstream media as their vehicle to voice these "concerns" to the public at large.Quote:

ASC had the first beginners IPSC mini rifle match last sunday. A good turnout for the first one with 38 people. All shot with .22lr's
Four stages using paper, poppers, swingers and drop turners. All shot from a stationary position and acat mag limits so everyone could have a go. Many rugers and ar15's.
Only malfunctions I saw came from rugers, not to say all rugers failed. I will keep my dedicated ar15 in .22lr thanks :)
Everyone seemed to have a good time, .22lr is cheap and a lot of fun when there is competition involved.
Kerry over at Precision Shooter took a few pics, I am sure he wont mind the link over https://precisionshooter.info/ipsc-m...shooting-club/

Someone needs to send them a copy of the IPSC rulebook and the Target Array Book.
Why?Quote:

Until you have your 'B' or done one of the practical rifle courses then you can't run around. So strictly systolic you are right, it doesn't meet IPSC rules as we are shooting too many targets from one position but thats not the point of the exercise.
This gives members a small taste of what they can do later and and everyone had a great time from beginner to seasoned IPSC shooters.
Good on yous. More people into the shooting sports the better.

It's not the too many shots from one position. That's allowed for Level 1 matches.Quote:

Read rule 4.2.1. and the target array book.
If people are being charged $500 to join a club, the least they could expect is to have the club follow the rules of the game they are playing.
I shot the Mini Rifle match. Coming from a novice point of view it was great. A very good introduction to the sport, important practice of the processes and learning the RO commands. I think this was the point of the day. Even the seasoned shooters looked to enjoy it. ASC are doing a great job catering for what I assume is a large number of people asking for things.
WTF?Quote:

You can't honestly be whinging about that?
You must have such an exhilarating life[emoji38]

Sorry we rubbed you up the wrong way. Everyone said they would come back, no one asked for a refund.Quote:

cheers
You'd be better off at NZDA as the ASC doesn't have a range that far yet.Quote:

New shooters need to be taught the right way to do things from the very start.
That way you don't get people in their first Level 3 match wondering why they've been bumped to open, because no cunt ever told them about not putting more than 15 rounds in their Shadow magazines in production division. Or reloading with a spare magazine from the front pocket of their jeans.
It wasn't a proper match. It is a get people interested in 3-gun/mulitgun from the long gun stand point rather than from the pistol angle. Hense no shooting on the move, it was a taster activity not a real match.
It was an intro shoot FFS.
Level matches have someone competent and familiar with the rules set targets so you raise a pointless argument regarding this example
All the other stuff can be read in the IPSC rule book handed out on RO or Holster cse.
Entering a match unprepared regarding rules is a competitors fault. No one else's.
Maybe you should read a rule book on how not to be a dick all the time.
Might take you a while to get thru tho. Bonus for us as it might keep you away from the forum awhile.

if link don't work here is what it says
AUCKLAND COUNCIL DECIDES SHOOTING AND CAMPING ARE ILLEGAL
Auckland Council has changed how it interprets the Resource Management Act, by denying that there is a provision for some level of discharge under section 5.5.41 of the act. It has recently
revoked a certificate of compliance for the Auckland Shooting Club on the basis that there "may be" discharge of contaminants, despite a High Court ruling that the activity is allowed, and processes in place to ensure that no discharge will occur. Auckland Council was required by the High Court to simply reconsider the issue of the certificate taking into account the discharge permitted under the act.
On 19 December of last year, Auckland Council wrote in a letter that the Auckland Shooting Club ranges “..may need a consent to discharge contaminants in the long term, at this stage there is no evidence of any discharge to trigger the need for a discharge consent.”
However, Auckland Council has reversed its own interpretation that it has applied to all permitted activities until now.
The RMA prohibits any discharge unless there is a specific rule. As Auckland Council has decided on its own that the only rule that allows for discharge up to a certain level has no meaning, there is no provision for any activity that has a small discharge. This means that legally Auckland Council can’t ‘give you a pass’ because a discharge is small. By its own interpretation,
Auckland Council no longer has a legal basis for allowing even small discharges and must require a consent for any discharge. Auckland Council has now made many past-times illegal for
New Zealanders in the Auckland region.
The result of this Auckland Council decision is that no minimum discharge is allowed without a consent. This means that no matter where you live in Auckland the following will require a
resouce consent for every property on which they are conducted:
• pest control shooting (e.g. possums);
• duck shooting;
• other shooting for hunting purposes;
• target shooting of any kind;
• camping
• painting your house;
• building where there is any run-off- e.g. from concrete slabs;
• etc.
There will be many other things that you now cannot do without a resource consent. Using Wet and Forget? - Forget It. This will now need a resource consent. The application fee alone for a
discharge resource consent is $11,500, and you will need consultant reports and be required to pay any other council costs. All discharge consents will also require iwi consultation.
Thanks Rushy will be a good chance to meet some hunters around the place too cheers
More bureaucratic bullshit.Quote:

:wtfsmilie: I fought against the addition of "all locations where shooting had taken place" to this list:
Hazardous Activities and Industries List (HAIL) | Ministry for the Environment
Would have made most of Rural Land "Potentially Contaminated" so not just an Auckland thing.
It's PC madness...
Legislators gonna legislate.
