Interesting questions. I have found front line police staff, sworn and unsworn, to be okay, approachable and polite. Not always as knowledgeable as one might expect, but competent. I...

That's my feeling too. I couldn't hand over $1200-1300 for something like that. It's not a bargain basement rifle, even the much loved Howa 1500 is $100-200 cheaper (cue: MD!). I walked in to a shop...

Funny how a simple question can generate such an emotional response from a few people. Plenty of good out of the box options out there that cost the same. The argument that you need to spend a lot...

I just do not get why people spend money on a shitty firearm that will shoot "well" after you have "worked" (meaning "fixed") the action, and replaced the trigger to something designed by somebody...

A sneak peek at an old project I am resurrecting, who wants a retro kit to turn their old 10/22 into a WWII Thompson smg look alike? Lots more to do yet but Keep watching this space.

Hey mate, I'm 39 and pretty much in the same boat. Started to get serious about hunting deer this year and the key has been talking to hunters and getting out with some experienced people. ...

I have a aliexpress snfway(?) And it seems alright. I would agree it's not the greatest in low light but I'm happy with it. I'd be really keen to compare to a luepold or similar to see how...

I have an Ali Express golf range finder in my golf bag. It was around $60. It works pretty well. Lens are rubbish so I'd not think it will be very useful in low light. USB charge so could be an issue...

I hunted for 20 years with 24-26" barrels (unsuppressed) without hearing protection, and am advised – as above – that I damaged my hearing from the occasional shot, and no doubt I did, but it was...

Doesn't matter what length with no hearing protection they will both damage your hearing severely. My advice to all new and old hunters alike is to suppress the rifles you hunt with. Suppressors are...

Shooting goats/tahr/deer up to about 250-280M is one game that I happily do with just about any rifle scope combination that will hold a reliable zero. Shooting them around 300 starts to get...

Having to pay an administration fee to buy a 'tax ticket' that you are compelled to have by law strikes me as pure extortion! Nothing more than a modern version of Highwaymen and probably deserving...

I headed out yesterday for yet another hunt. It feels like I've been on dozens of hunts since I got my FAL and got nothing, but the actual number is probably 13 or 14. Every time I've learned...

Wow. This means they want to bring back E cat as it was, not just a slightly widened P endorsement as I was expecting. It's hard to imagine much buy in to that idea from the anti-gun nutters (both...
