    New member - Far North

    Hi everyone.

    I've been target shooting for many years (33), albeit on another continent. I have moved from Germany to New Zealand 10 1/2 years ago and NZ has now become my home.
    I am based in Kaitaia in the Far North and I’m a member of the Far North Pistol Club and PistolNZ.
    I love target/ precision shooting both pistols and rifles. I’m also keen to reload all my ammunition by myself. I enjoy my time with my club mates at the shooting range on a Saturday.

    I’m very happy that I have found this forum and now I have to find out what all this short phrases stands for. Like “Bump”, “SPF”, “TTT” etc. 🤔

    Cheers,
    Frank

    Thanks Phil, this forum becomes my daily reading now. Like lectures on a night stand. 👍
    Cheers, Frank

    I’m shooting pistol calibres from .22lr to .45ACP and rifles from also .22lr to .308Win. Also 12g shotgun as o/u and semi. I owned a nice selection of really top notch semi-autos in .223 REM. but they are all gone 😢 Cheers

    @Phil_H speaking of pending funds, I still owe you some coin but I cant send it to you as I need some payment info. You will not escape my attempt to send you 7 dollars.

    Welcome fellah.
    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
