    Hi all, another JAFFA here...

    Hi guys & gals, I'm new here, but have been shooting for a little while. I live on the Shore, but have some land up near Wellsford I can shoot on, & a few friends south of Auckland who let me take care of their rabbits...

    Mostly I shoot targets & tasty small game, but am keen to get into tasty larger game at some point too.

    Nice to be here, & I look forward to learning a lot from you bunch...

    Welcome Bob. 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

    Kia ora Bob, good to see another Jafa on the forum. Some good sticks on here.

    Is it true what they say about the Shore - if the tides in at Red Beach you can always duck around the corner to Browns Bay?

    No, I haven't gotten out there yet. Thankfully, I've been able to use a bit of land up near Te Hana for sighting in & practice, so I haven't needed a formal range so far. Seems like it might be worth coming along to meet some folks tho...
