    Hi everyone

    Hi all,

    There is a lot of knowledge here, so I thaught it best I make use of some of it. That and I tracked my favorite cast bullet maker here. I have been shooting since I was 16, and 16 years since, loads of target rifle at home, a bit of handgun and scared a few clays over that time. While I was a broke apprentice I did loads of subsistence hunting to get by (beer was a priority back then). Since then I have been a keen reloader, and a firearms safety instructor with the MSC, (no longer needed like 450 others....).
    I live in northland, and by no means am I an expert on anything, I am more than happy to give back to the community who has given so much to me. If anyone in the north could do with a bit of advice sing out, I am more than happy to work with community groups and iwi to teach practical skills and safety.

    Thanks, Lars

    Hi all. I live in South Head on the Kaipara, I do a lot of trapping up here and help run the pest control for South Kaipara Land Care, we have an abundance of every pest up here and also a lot of NZs rare birds. Im very keen to learn more trapping techniques from the forum and swap ideas

    Welcome to you both.
    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 Lars,

    I'm from Waipu too. Its a shame there isn't many deer around here but plenty of goats and pigs.

    Cheers
