Good Evening

Greetings to all. I'm new to the hunting scene having grown up without the benefits of any hunting family etc. But after spending a few years in the Green Machine have come to find the cold and wet misery found only at the top of a craggy knoll much to my liking, having gotten myself 1x firearms licence, 1x .22, 1x small game hunting permit and am researching choices for centrefire currently awaiting funds.
Have been lurking in the darkness of a non-poster for a while now but am keen to become more active as I approach the time of my kit completion (if there is such a thing).

welcome Conch.. Hunting kit completion?? It will never happen! The day after you purchace the last item something new and better will arrive on the market that you just have to have!
Good luk on the start.. You will get loads of help from people here!

Welcome Conch. 2SK is correct as you will never get all the kit. Plenty on here have been in the green machine. Even an old codger like me

Welcome to the forum. Like they said its never complete or I would have stopped when I had my .303 as thats all I needed.

Welcome aboard conch.

Welcome Conch, As an ex member of NZs finest it is your duty to be a pisstaker on here as are those before you.:sarge::D

Welcome to the forum Conch, you will fit in here!

Never too old to start from the bottom, only too wise.

Thanks all, got no shortage to learn and I'm sure you have no lack of information to pass on.

Ripping into people isn't really my style VC I'd much rather let people dig their own holes :D

Not ripping into people, just friendly humor;)

Did my stint as a TF grunt and must say it was some of the happiest days of my life.
friendships forged there are pretty bloody good too.welcome on board squire ,and nup ya wallet is gonna get hammered as long as the sun shines and stores sell huntin gear!
