    Taranaki Newbie

    Hi all,

    Names CJ, 26, father of two. Have just moved back home to Taranaki after working in the mines in Australia for the last few years. Really keen to get outdoors and learn how to hunt etc, especially pigs. Ya dont realise what ya had until its gone as they say and working in outback Aus makes ya really realise this haha. Been readin everythin and anythin like mad and just in the process of organising my gun licence. Looking forward to learnin off ya all and i thank yas in advance for help with some of the 1000 questions i got haha.

    Cheers

    Welcome CJ. 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
