    Yeah they can get you going alright! On the foot safari we had one have a go at us out of a thicket, was the only time our guides chambered a round, they looked a bit flustered too! Even when we had an elephant 5-10m from us in camp they weren't worried! My wife was petrified though!

    Those eastern cape personalised plares look awesome, way better than the kzn ones!

    Didn't see the apprehension but certainly saw the effective technique for getting them to stop.

    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
