    Hi

    Hey all,

    Thought I best introduce myself. My name is Eion I'm 20 and from Dunedin. I do a fair bit of small bore shooting and I'm pretty keen on my shotgun. I use to dive a lot when I was back up Nelson way but it's a bit cold for my like down here. I signed up to have a local source of knowledge and perspective on firearms. I'm currently restoring a couple of old rifles so if anyone knows much about slow rust bluing I'd like to hear from them. Anyway I'll do my best to be helpful.

    Eion

    Yeah, it's Gaelic but it's Gàidhlig which is the Scottish dialect. The only difference is Irish say it Owen Scots say it E-on.

    Och another Scotsman. Welcome to the forum Eion
    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

    Ooo it's super secret

    Well, it's actually welsh I think but there are heaps of variants. Think pure....white, holy...fair, ice, an enchantress..
