    G'day

    Hey guys. New to the site. Applied for my FAL in January and will be sitting the safety course next weekend. I am planning on picking up a .22 as soon as my license comes in. I also intend to move onto bigger rifles to go deer hunting and other big game when I can.

    Look forward to it all and keen for advice as a new hunter! I'm based in Auckland but have in-laws who live in Waikato and close to Miranda Scenic Reserve which is apparently open for hunting so keen to head there sometime in the future.

    Welcome aboard, If you be patient you will find a good .22 on here.
    most likely better and cheaper than the average new one.
    Use enough gun

    Well if the notice on the firearms section on the NZ Police site is accurate then I've got 12 months to be patient haha

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
