    My High School's graduating class was 2,000 students. Miami-Dade County alone had a population of 3.5 million. LOL

    This is the magic of this forum. Quite a few of the kiwis here have met and if you're considering vacationing over here there are many who'll be happy to at least suggest likely spots

    Welcome to the forum dude and enjoy. Hell of a state you live in with sun, sea and good looking women all in abundance. I have seen the two incongruous and twenty eight of the congruous states (including Miami).
    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

    Welcome to the forums.

    with all those alligators and escaped pythons I guess you need to be armed all day!
    7. Avoid alcohol or drugs when handling firearms

    Good judgement is the key to safe use of firearms.
