    Gun People Central Otago?

    Hi there, my name is Lance and I am a 27yo Hunting and shooting enthusiast, new to the Central Otago area and this Forum. Looking to get in touch with like minded gun people. I am interested in both building and shooting all guns and a new interest in the AR as a varmint rig here in rabbit paridise. I have a solid knowledge base of all things guns, with a major in military types and I am always keen to learn. Any one from around Central looking to meet new gunners I'm keen. Thanks

    Gidday Lance, I'm down the road a bit near Gore but get up to Central a bit. I really don't want to see an AR in action on rabbits though, been resisting the urge to get one & don't think that would help...

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more

    Hi there, small world mate I just moved here from good old Gore. Iv been out twice with my 10/22 and had a bit of luck but the blighters tend to mob up in lots of 50 to 100 in the open country around 150m to beyond out. Suppressed AR is my only available solution and you don't have to go look at the results, remembering they are a pest of course. Definitely get an AR mate they are great.

    Nothing against using something like an AR for rabbit shooting mate

    Just don't need to see it to confirm what I'm missing out on!

    Welome to the forum Lance. There are a number of good southerners on here
    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
