    H&F giving away ear muffs. The store makes nothing out of licences, so as long as you don’t buy anything there, you’ve got one over them

    Guncity is doing shell belts I believe. I don't know whether Hamills in Te Awamutu are doing a licence offer also?

    Hamills T/A don't usually have duck licence gifts, got a licence there last year and the licence was all you got.

    Unfortunately I bought mine in H&F Whakatane about an hour before that twat carried out the atrocity. I hated ever buying from H&F and always avoided it where possible, but was swayed by the earmuffs. I've since rubbed the branding off them.

    Have to say that I use previous freebies from H&F quite regularly, head torch and pocket knife. While they may not be premium items, they haven't fallen apart yet and are still working.

    if any of you fellas still have the dacota cutlery larger pocket knife with the green plasic handle thats similar to a gerber gator and feel so strongly that you dislike H&F that you are going to chuck it away.....you can chuck it my way and I will say "THANK YOU" ever so much.....I absolutely love mine,cut up a fallow with it on Saturday and it only reinforced how good it really is....

    I don't even want to by a Duck shooting licence after Fish and Game threw semi auto owners under the bus in recent days.

    I didn't know F&G did that, I thought they had been quiet. They seem to be reducing the number of shells you can have loaded around the country for duck hunting. Three shells total is the limit in a few places, so throwing semis under the bus would fit.

    Personally, I'm pretty ambivalent about duck hunting this season for a few other reasons.

    Been shooting 3shots here in the Waikato for years,only time it limits me really is when a mob of geese pass over,otherwise if I can’t kill at least one duck from each opportunity I feel I shouldn’t be shooting,.
