    Cool Hello world

    Hi everyone,
    I’ve visited this forum every now and then whenever I’ve had a firearms related question.
    By some chance someone’s always had the same question/problem as I have and solved mine.
    Thought it’d be time I join up.

    A little about me, I’m 18 years old and have had my license since 17, currently a student studying at The University of Auckland.

    I’ve seen very few people my age who are into shooting.

    Thanking everyone in advance for answering my trivial questions in the future

    Welcome aboard. There isn’t any artificial intelligence here but a high proportion of artificial hips and knees in some very intelligent firearms enthusiasts.

    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. Lots of people in the country your age into hunting and shooting. I think it's AK that is the issue, not university. What are you studying?

    If there are options for the same degree in Canterbury you will be much better off hunting wise.
