    Lurking

    Hi Team.

    I have been lurking on here for a while, so thought it was high time to introduce myself. I've been hunting for a number of years with my favourite annual trip going down to the west coast Tahr blocks. Have also been participating at the local small bore club and enjoy punching paper at the range occasionally. Although I have a reasonable collection of rifles, my favourite go to for hunting is my first ever rifle which is a husqvarna .270. I also use a custom mauser 98 actioned 300wm on Tahr, nothing flash, but gets the job done. Like many others, I'm disappointed with the recent firearm law shambles and will be regretfully handing in some interesting firearms.

    I have donated to COLFO a couple of times (good on them) and sent in personal submissions as well.

    There are a lot of good folk in this group and I'm grateful to be a part of such an experienced and supportive group.

    Thanks all.

    Welcome
    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
