    Greetings Chaps.

    Greetings fellas, hope all is good.

    New member to the forums, but long time browser.

    I'm from Ireland, been in NZ 7 years, and just got round to sorting my FAL.

    Living in North Canterbury, glad to be around like-minded lads, even if its just online.

    Cheers.

    Welcome Paddy.
    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

    How do you do good sir?

    I'm from the big smoke, Belfast. Spent most of my younger days in Donegal, and most of my older days when I could get away.

    I hail from as far away as I could get with my springer spaniel and my fly rod.
