    Hello from Christchurch.

    Hi everyone my name is Dan, finally got my bloody FAL so picked up my first rifle and very keen to head out and put it to use.

    Interested in target shooting and itching to get out for a deer/goat hunt as I'm new to hunting but not shooting.

    Any questions feel free to ask.

    Cheers.

    Welcome aboard Dan. Enjoy
    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

    Stick a stamp on it and address it to Rushy and Mates, C/- Barefoot's Goat Hunt, Puhoi (ish) and make it express as we need it Sunday.
