    Hello Everyone

    I am an old man, but still have a few guns, duck shooting, deer, small game, trap and pistol.
    I shot my last deer at 77 years old, last duck at 78. Gun maintenance is my hobby, currently working on a 410 Rossi and I will start another thread on that soon.

    We'll just have to wait for another 9 years for a reply
    Noel is not a man who likes to be rushed

    Welcome… a familiar name from a previous forum.
    You helped me get into a reloading when I lived in Pukekohe some years back.
    You even showed me a few of you own home made toys which was quite impressive.

    If you ever need anything just sing out…

    Welcome and “hats off to you”
    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
