    Hi there

    Hi all,

    My wife and I just got our FA licenses. We're predominantly interested in target shooting.

    After doing some research and asking around, we're in the process of joining the Hutt Valley Deerstalkers. Kaitoke seems to be the most accessible range in the Wellington area. We'll probably also join the Wellington branch as affiliates, since their range is a little bit closer to us than Kaitoke.

    I'm also interested in service firearms and hope to one day get my restricted weapons endorsement. Any advice on that would be greatly accepted!

    Cheers,
    Mark

    Hi Recoil,

    Welcome. If you are interested in target shooting, come out to the Seddon range in Trentham on a Sat afternoon, and have a go. The season is summer only, we are almost at the end of this one, two weekends to go I think.

    During winter the indoor smallbore season kicks off, several clubs around the Welly region.

    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
