    Yeah bugger it, I'll join in

    G'day team, another Aussie invader here. Moved to Marlborough 2 years ago after living in Fiji for a bit, haven't called Oz home for a while now.
    Grew up on pistol shooting ranges in qld before the gun laws tightened up and crushed the sport, by the time I was school age shooting was a nostalgic thing of the past. Jumped at the chance to live somewhere I can get back to those golden years again.
    Got me a borrowed Norinco .22lr that's accounted for about 6 rabbits from riverbeds now and scrimped together just enough cash for a tikka .308 before we all had to sit on the couch to save the country.
    Hoping to maybe bump into a few locals to down a beer with, the wife is sick of being the only one I talk to about hunting
    stingray, Pengy, Gibo and 5 others like this.

    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

    We can all but hope that when this is all over, all husbands and wives will still be talking.
